How often should brake rotors be replaced?
From a rotor spec sheet, find the minimum thickness, from there take about a micrometer and measure. If it is below the minimum then you need to change your brake rotors. Rotors do not generally need to be replaced unless there has been extensive damage to them from driving on extremely worn down break pads. If you waited too long to change your break pads then you may want to consider replacing them. If not, you don’t need to worry about it.

Your vs commodore shakes when you brake you replaced the pads will rotating the wheels make any difference?
Disk brake rotors will warp when the overheat. Riding the brakes, a lot of downhill or other heavy, continuous braking can result in an overheated rotor which can cause brake pulsing. Some call it 'brake chatter'. Often the rotors can be "turned" to make them even again, but if the rotors have worn down already or if the manufacturers specs have been exceeded, turning won't be an option and you'll need to buy new rotors. You can't inspect them to determine if they're warped, but if the vehicle has brake chatter, the rotors are warped.

How often should you change rear brake pads?
There really is no set time or even mileage. If good quality brake pads and s hoes are fitted, they will last a long time. Most disc brake pads have 'squealer' plates, these are thin tin plates that screech when your pads need to be replaced. I like to keep a good eye on all essential features of my car, so I take off the wheels and check my pads and shoes at least twice a year.
