In need of some maintenance advice

So I Finally got a chance to get the pig up on the lift today to chance the oil and rotate the tires. When it was up with the tires off I noticed the front pad sensors are going to hit the rotors anytime and the rotors have a pretty big lip on both sides. They still brake perfect with no vibration just getting low. First off how stupid is it they hit the sensor when there is 6/32 of pad left. But anyway, any recommendations on pads and should I do rotors being they are not blued and have no vib. If the answer is yes to the rotors advice on rotors would be great also. I don't care much about performance, oem performance is plenty for me. The most important thing is smooth and quiet.

Also on a side note when changing the oil the oil cap had milky oil on it, but the oil that drained looked great ( for being used oil). I know of other vehicles this happens from moisture but just wondered if this is normal on the CTT.

TIA

Milky oil in the cap is normal on Cayennes with frequent cold starts and short trips.
You need to replace the rotors if the lip is big enough to cut the sensor with that much pad left.
