As long as there in spec it will be fine. Issue being that if you have a hard stop (panic stop) most likely the rotors will warp resulting in a brake pulsation. The thinner the rotor the quicker they heat up creating hot spots that will warp them.
Even new rotors are basically junk these days, the recycled steel they use to make them is far from grade A.

The Toyota dealer in central NY that sold us the two RAV4 Primes (Nov 2020, Aug 2022) can no longer sell PHEVs to out-of-state customers. We were "grandfathered" because we were a recent customer. The policy change date is coming up soon this fall.
