The rotors are totally good, are not shaking at all, but tiny concentric lines can be seen and felt when touched on the surface. Would it affect the breaking performance with the new pads if I left it as is or shall I just get it resurfaced? I'm attaching photos of the front and rear rotors, hopefully the "depth" of the lines can be seen.
You should be able to make that rotor more smooth with some sand paper at home.
I'm not sure about that, I think that could lead to an uneven surface and shaking while the brakes are engaged unless done in a machine that sort of guarantees flatness.
