They'll fit
However, you need to grind about 1/8" "knub" down on the front of each caliper to clear the wheel. I think this is characteristic of the wheel's 2 piece construction. To convert from your stock TDI brakes, you'll need new wheel bearings and housings, as well as calipers.
edit: That is the same 12.3" slotted rotor in each picture, not sure why the slots are not visible in the latter picture.
