The wheel nuts (or bolts, whichever) were probably tightened by an air wrench when the wheels were put back on the car, and improper torquing of the nuts can warp the brake disc. You can find out if this is the case with a torque wrench, but the discs may still need machining when the nut torque is corrected.
