Brake Disc question

Ive just fitted anouther set of discs to my D4, Sad Sad Big Cry the front have been on for about 14 months and 14k they have 0.7mm wear but have cracked, I wouldnt have replaced them with that amount of wear but as the are cracked I thought I better, is cracking unusual for the small amount of wear ? Whats the recomended amount of wear before replacing them ?
Thanks for any input Very Happy

30mm new, LR recommend change at 27mm Shocked minute surface cracks are acceptable, deep cracks are not. The specifications are usually stamped on the circumference edge.
What brand are they?

It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.
