Brake Pads

I went to fit my new Front Brake Pads yesterday morning, having ordered some Mintex MDB1457s from AtoZ but found that they are way to big to fit into the slot of my Calipers (legthways) so should I have ordered the 1456s instead?
I have a 951 with 4 pot calipers
Thanks
 
It sounds like they may have supplied you with pads for a brake upgrade model. Lots of info on here, but broadly there are three caliper sizes. 1. S2 & 220. 'Small Blacks'. 2. 250. 'Medium-sized blacks'. 3. Optional upgrade to any of the above models - 'Big Blacks'. (I think the above is correct, but someone will be along soon to correct me if not.) Oli.

Well come on man; don't just laugh at me, tell me whether I got it right or not! [&:] Fatty, it says in your sig that your car is a 1988 model. Is it a 220? If so, I'd suspect that they sent you the pads for a 250 model. Oli.
