Rotor surface damaged

One of my pads was stuck so I tapped it out with a flathead , missed a few times and damaged the rotor surface .. any cause for concern ? Do I need to get them resurfaced or just send it ?

Edit: thanks all , I sent it 👌

Tire width vs tread width

Kind of went into a rabbit hole looking into what tires to get for future wheel set ups .. I noticed V730s have the same tread width with 265/35R18 and 275/35R18 .. if tirerack measurements are accurate , is it better to get the smaller tire ? I’m guessing the larger tire will have better heat dissipation but take slightly longer to warm up

Edit: for reference , current wheels are 18x9.5

Staggering different brand pads

Currently running carbotech xp12 front and xp10 rear , the fronts will need to be replaced well before the rears .. been getting a lot of recommendations to try out CSG (C1XB)

I was looking into it and not sure how accurate it is but seems like the xp10 have a stronger bite than CSG ? Not sure how true that is but will I be okay to run them or should I stick with carbotech until I need to replace the rears ?
