Ive seen the samething went to change some breaks for a (girl) and seen that. I told her she needs more then just break pads. She says what do you mean i have to buy something else i dont have the money I put her tire back on and she drove off with her man and 5 year old kid never seen the car again.

I call bs on this pic the wear on rotor goes all the way to center but pads are usually about 1/2 from center. This was done on a lathe

That may be a real life pic but it wasn't driven that way. The rotor is worn all the way up to the hub. Except the pads don't touch that area. Definitely a machined rotor, but still a fun pic.
