Default rotor surface on my R

I was checking the air pressure in my tires tonight and noticed that on the drivers side front rotor there is an indentation that is sorta deep to me on the rotor surface. I just put the Carbotech Panter + pads on getting ready for the event this weekend. None of the other rotors have anything like this at all. I was wondering what could of caused this? Like i said it seems to be pretty deep on the surface. My brakes have been squealing like hell lately which i knew they would with the Carbotech's...but even with them warmed up they squeek. Heck, even driving down the road and not even applying the brakes they sqeak. Is this normal?

Sounds like you've grooved your brake rotor - don't worry, Brembo blanks are $38, so it's no big deal.

Check to make sure your front pad is seated properly. There shouldn't be more wear on one rotor than the other (the fronts should wear the same as each other, the rears should wear the same as each other). Plenty on meat left on your pad too I assume?

No the squeaking stops by 60 mph
