Default Pagid Gp N+ grooved discs no longer grooved

The grooves on my Pagid Gp N+ discs have almost been worn away - how much disc material is likely to be left?
The pads are still the same Pagid blues that were put on at the same time as the discs - is it usual for discs and pads to wear at the same rate?
I've already bought a new set of the Pagid blues as the MOT garage told me they were thin (9 months ago....), so will replace the pads with these. Should I just go with the Pagid discs again, or is there something else better?

You should on average get 2 sets of pads out of 1 set of discs, now that your grooves are pretty much gone, shows that the life of the disc has pretty much gone, you should be able to tell by the ammount of lip on the edge of the disc.

So much for that theory!
There isn't much in the way of a lip either - they're pretty much worn to the edge.
Any recommendations for a replacement?

stick with what you know..
If you found them to be excellent at thier job and you're happy with the price you paid for them, then why change.
