Help identifying brake pads

I ordered rotors and pads from R1 Concepts. The pads I ordered were Axxis Ultimate's. When I received them, the rear pads came in a Axxis Ultimate box and have Ultimate printed on the integrated shim on the back of the pad. The front pads did not come in a box, just plastic wrapped, do not say Ultimate nor have the integrated shim. Does anyone recognize what pads these are?

For reference, this is what the Ultimate rears look like (These are for a diff car btw)

The fronts look like they do not have a shim, whereas the backs do.

I would call R1concepts.

I did, apparently the Ultimate's are on back-order. Not exactly sure what they sent me, but they have since removed the pads from their website. I am sending them back and I already ordered some Racing Brake ET500's.
