Installed New Rotors, Now Don't Feel Like I'm Getting Enough Thread Bite

96 Formula
Installed new delco rotors and brake pads. Everything seem to go great.
When I installed my tires it doesn't feel like I'm catching enough threads for the lugnuts. The rotor is bottomed out and the lug bolts seem to be coming through fine.

You need at least 12mm (~1/2") of thread engagement.
