rear pad = 6mm
front rotor = 5mm
front pad =.... pretty much toast?

For $40 per axle, it's not expensive to replace a set of older pads if you're already going through the trouble to take them off and check everything.

rears look fine to me.
fronts........ hard to see the inner facing side of the rotor but from the picture, it looks DANGEROUSLY thin. also, the way to measure the front rotor is from one side to the other including the gap for the cooling vanes.
you need to do front rotors and pads.

In need of replacement? Doesn't look like it. Call your dealer and ask what the minimum thickness is for Rotors.
