Tell me what happens if you never replace them?
they wear thin, i have actually seen them so bad the center cooling fins are exposed on the rotor surface, you will eventually get pedal pulsations when braking and possibly will squeek, also as they wear the piston for the caliper has a longer throw and may either come out or get cocked to the side and not retract causing the wheel to lock, as stated above the rotors wear just as pads do, they are consumables
