Hi,

Max doesn't do metal/rough exactly as you see in Painter but you can get close. Delete those maps - go back to Painter and export using the Vray preset. This will convert your materials into maps Max can use. Best to export as 16bit tiff. Then use  Arch & Design material - going by memory only  here but...

difuse (or base color) into difuse,

glossy into Reflection Glossiness Map,

IOR into IOR Map

Bump into Normal Bump - then your normal and height into that

I've had good luck with the metal/rough materials using the new Physical Material and the ART renderer as a pbr flow.

Search for non pbr - for more info

This is a good tutorial for the non PBR flow - it uses Vray but can be converted for Mental Ray as it non PBR
