NB front rotors replacement at 60k miles?

My 8 has 58k miles on it and the rotors are 24mm thick as I read on some thread the minimum safety is 22mm on fronts. If I take them to get cut, whould them be to thin?
Would you recommed me the rotora basic OEM (@ $145 pair) or any other (non drilled, just for safety). I need to save money to do something else to the car.
Any input is appreciated.!!

Go to Zeckhausenracing at http://zeckhausenracing.com/ and get Centric Premium OEM rotors, good quality blank rotors for a good price. I have used them at the track. Also before you do or buy anything read this extremely well written Brake FAQ https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-wheels-tires-brakes-suspension-55/brake-faq-167264/ .
