if there not the 256mm ate setup at least get some from a calibra or cav or the likes there a direct fit,
the other thing is to consider is if your running machined down cav hubs for the shafts for the xe conversion then consider if the hub is machined right as it will put the offset of the disc out,i had he same problem when building mine they were touching,luckily i had a very good machinist friend sort mine

well if you want a decent answer ask a question so we can understand it!
However as said above most XE's usually get fitted with 256mm discs with ate calipers off a astra,cav,calibra etc etc i reckon hes given you the discs and not the calipers id say they are the standard gte calipers that should have smaller discs i would go to a scrappy and find a cav calibra astra 2.0 etc and get the calipers off that ir advertisefor some on here
