Rotor wear limit

I will be replacing my brake pads all around in the next week or so. I also measured my rotors to see how they were doing. The specs indicate 24mm new with a replacement thickness of 22mm. I measured 23mm on the front and almost new on the rear so I'm within tolerances. There is no surface area grooving or pulsing or other weirdness in the driving characteristics. However, there is a small ridge at the edge of the front rotors where it hasn't been worn. Will that be an issue at all if I just install my new pads or are new rotors advisable?

This car gets spirited street use with no track miles.
