Are you one of those two foot drivers (one on the gas, one on the brake) or stand hard on the brakes when stopping? Because that's not a pad problem.

That might be it to be honest. Because I've noticed when I do use it to slow traffic, it feels like it rides the brakes a good bit of the time. Your rotors are fine otherwise.

To really know you need to get a thickness gauge like this one to measure the rotor. The minimum thickness is printed right on the rotor hat if you look for it.
