I would check if they were original rotors.
There are brake rotor threads on this forum to check out.
When we bought the car i looked at the rotors and pads and they did not look like the originals so they have been replaced in the past by someone.

Brakes were machined/lightly skimmed as they were glazed over and were squealing. Nothing wrong with doing that.
