As for the steering wheel vibration I had, I took my car into the dealership and they said they would take $80 just to inspect!

Most people have said that rotors are never really "warped" just brakes are not bedded in properly. Also the vibration now only happens at hot temperature. I stopped seeing it on freeway braking. Resurfacing/buying new rotors are basically the same cost and my car is only 20k miles!!
When do you guys usually get rotors replaced? ( I have 20k miles and tracked the car twice at Laguna Seca).

I get at least a dozen track days on a set of StopTech rotors. They tend to vibrate for a lap or two when bedding in a new set of pads, but no issues beyond that. I just check for minimum thickness and look for cracks to make sure there's nothing on the edge.
