: : From experience, rotors should usually be replaced every third brake pad change max if you've been turning them. If you see that lip, you gotta replace them, because the metal may be worn out and weak either from turning, and the repeated friction and heat. Usually, when the rotors get bad, they may warp, and then you can feel it when you brake, when the pedal pulsates. Worse case scenario are that they can get blue from heat, and then actialy crack from what I've seen before. So I think it's a better thing if you replace them. I did a complete brake job right before the summer, changing both front and rear pads and rotors, and my cost in parts were $380 Cdn. I had front Nissan pads and Bendix rears with EuroRotors, a brand which I believe is made by Brembo.
