Hawk sent me the wrongs pads?

I just got these pads from Hawk but there's no way this fits, can anyone confirm this before I return them and get them from somewhere else or am I wrong and these should fit?

edit:

I guess I should have mentioned what I have- I have the 2008 Journey

so that's the right part # for my year+specific model but as you can see that pad is no where near the correct pad?

Akebono brake:
That is similar to what mine looks like. Do the big brake have any distinct signs? like dual piston or the infiniti letters? How would I tell? or does anyone have a picture of the standard size brakes next to the big brake kit?

Similar to this, an ugly floating caliper rather than the pretty aluminum fixed calipers in the above pic.

ok yea then I def have the big brake kit. How would I go about purchasing pads for it? Where do I start looking since standard search generates the normal sized brake pads.

Can't post a proper link because I'm at work, but this is what the basic brakes look like. https://encrypted-tbn3.gstatic.com/i...IcE2XdEj22T8wg

Common issue. However, even after changing over to StopTechs rotors and pads, I still have squeaking.

I have pretty much the same/opposite problem. Hawk sent me the square pads (pictured on the left of the OP's post), and I need the ones on the right. I'll trade ya. hahaha. I have a 2011 M37x, and I ordered the one that Infitini said would fit my car, and it doesn't... sooo.. I think Hawk needs to get their stuff together and figure out what fits what.
