Thanks for the response. No vibrations they just look a little tired. Any idea what the minimum thickness runs?
Yup, 28.4mm for fronts and 22.4mm for the rears. If I recall, it's also stamped on the rotor hubs.

Before a track day two years ago, I was at about 28.6-28.7 on my fronts and I went ahead and swapped them for new Zimmerman rotors. It was worth it as I was able to beat on them for a full day and they had a lot of meat left after. Fluid got a little tired by the end of the day and pedal got a bit softer, but the rotors and pads held up nicely.
