pads have probably been changed when the discs were half worn so there was a slight lip causing the grooves on the pads. and iirc my inner pads had worn more than my outer ones when i changed them but may have been a slightly sticky caliper carrier meaning the ineer pushed more than the outer. all seems good since i changed pads and discs and copper greased it all though.
