Check the part number on the box that was sent. OR, contact who you got the pads from and return them for what you ordered.

Hello, part number is correct, if I was living in US i had them returned, I live in Sweden it took 3 weeks for shipment (summit racing).
Maybe I can have them shaved too correct thickness.
Have e-mailed stop Tech, no answer yet.

I think get them shaved for the right thickness is best option.

Your easiest solution may be to shave them down to 14.5mm. I would try a machine shop to do this, they may have better tools to trim the pad material.
