Default New Brake Pads & Rotors Help

Hello, Is it normal to need to change my brakes and rotors after 4 years doing 7500-10000 miles a year?

I had bought thermosqueak brake pads and centric rotors and these heads i dont really trust told me its time for new ones. But they only looked at the back ones.

Should I just order new ones from rockauto and be done with it? It's for a 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4.7 Laredo. What type would you order for snow heavy conditions as well as I'm up here in Canada. Thanks.

Remove the wheels and check them yourself if you can or take it to someone else to check them first.....or buy all new front and rear and go for 4 years

Hey there, do these rotors look like it's time to change them? Centric premium rotors..installed in May 2013. I'm thinking of going with POWER STOP KOE2220 Autospecialty By Power Stop 1-Click Daily Driver Brake Kits Click Info for full list of components. Front And Rear for $200-275US Shipped. More Information for POWER STOP KOE2220

Steering wheel was shaking, had wheels balanced no help. Took it to dealer, only has 13,000 miles on 2016 Cherokee Trailhawk. Dealer said brake rotors warped.. I said already! Expected dealer warranty to cover that.. he said no. Chrysler only covers until 12,000 miles.

In my opinion, don't buy the POWER STOP! Here's what the rotors look like after 20K miles:
