Default More brake problems......

OK, so I didn't have a great night last night. During my front-end overhaul, I upgraded to Bisteins, and 911S aluminum calipers. The caliper pistons came out without issue using my compressor at 90psi, but they wont go back in .

The calipers are off the car, the pistons are positioned properly at 20 degrees, and straight in the bore. I used new brake fluid as reassembly lube, and have installed new seals. All four go about 1/2 way in and stop. Any ideas..............

I don't want to drop $200 on new stomski pistons just to find out the caliper bores are really what's bad.
