You should feel 2 slight drag areas per revolution when turning the tar
by hand with the wheel in the air. These 2 drag areas are audible
also. This is the way it should be.
If the brakes drag all the way around, it could indicate swollen hoses,
brake pushrod misaligned or other issues.

These rotors are pretty old. I dont think I have ever changed them and the

The cure for "warped" rotors after hard stops is to creep slowly forward
immediately after stopping. This keeps the pad contact time on a hot rotor to
the minimum and prevents carburization and material transfer from pad to disk.
