Will 15" Cav Slabs fit over V6 calipers and 280 discs?

I needed a small spacer when running brand new disks and pads.
Due to the caliper catching the inner sides of the spokey part.

Oh yes i think i did i cant really remember.
Vectra V6 Calipers
Vectra V6 Brake pads
The discs to go with that SHOULD be Vectra GSi V6 288MM discs 5 stud and redrilled.
But 280MM Meriva 4 stud ones fit straight on, theres obviously an 8mm difference on the discs but its the calipers that would catch on the wheels not the discs.
So all is good :thumb:
Surely the diameter of the disc won't make a difference, as the calipers stay in the same location... its the disc depth (both of the disc face and mounting depth) that will push the sliding caliper out a bit further?
