All joking aside, maybe someday someone who is interested in knowing more about PCCB/ ceramic discs can find this post and may be of help to them and avoid making a very expensive mistake, or at least go into it knowing how to properly gauge the wear and tear on used ceramic rotors.
Regading the comment about weighing it, I agree and this is further clarified on the video I linked. When minute differences make a big difference, it's very concerning how anything can have a huge impact on the final results. I'm guessing that precisely because of this is why Proceq came up with that tool.
Switching to steel brakes is an additional expense that I'll never recoup when I sell it later on. Still on the fence as the ONLY thing preventing me from purchasing this specific vehicle is the fact that it has PCCBs on it (with yet to know % of wear on them that will be soon coming forth on the PPI results). Local market prices are weird in the sense that more expensive options (brakes, engines, models, etc.) usually end up selling for very similar prices to base models due to the fact that they are that much more expensive to run and maintain. Of course there are exceptions to this rule, but you'd be amazed as to how often it happens.
