Do I need to change this rotor

The picture is of my rear rotor and it seems that the pad is using half the rotor which I thought was weird but when I look up other rotors

Default Do I need to change this rotor

The picture is of my rear rotor and it seems that the pad is using half the rotor which I thought was weird but when I look up other rotors for the Z they seem to have a half contact point unlike the front. Do you guys think I should change to the proper rotor right away or could I wait a little until I get enough money to buy the AP racing brake kit? Thank you.

No worries. That's normal. And what do you think is a proper rotor for what you have now?

Have you priced a AP Racing BBK? Over $6,100 for both front and rear. So save your pennies.
