A runout check is good advice. A basic check, to see if there is any runout, can be done by clamping a wire, or other object, in touch with the rotor and then rotating the wheel. Any significant runout can be then observed by eye. To measure that runout you will need a dial indicator. A reasonable quality dial indicator is not expensive. Runout limits are described in the service manual. I don't have my manual by my side but will post the runout limit if you need.

Minimum rotor thickness is 3mm. I measured mine last week.
