The rotors are in spec thickness but badly warped. In the sunny southwest I would leave them but up here in NWI there is just too much threshold braking in the slick winter conditions. Last winter (which was unusually mild) I ended up locking up the right front long before the left front (worst warpage I have ever seen) in the couple of slick driving experiences.

I might look for better condition junkyard rotors instead as we still have 3 240's in the local PnP.
