Feeling smooth and actually being smooth are too different scenario’s.
To check for a warped rotor, you need to use a dial indicator gage and check for run out.
I would possibly recommend having those rotors ‘cut’, reinstall them and torque down all brake part bolts to specifications, particularly torquing down the lug nuts.

Agreed. It only takes about .002″ or more out of round for a rotor to cause a vibration. However sensitive your fingers are, I doubt they can feel that difference 🙂
Yea you can’t ‘feel’ warped rotors and if you have a vibration when braking then you have warped rotors that either need to be machined or replaced depending on how much material is left to them.
Since the other vibration changed when you rotated the tires I would recommend that you have them balanced and checked for belt issues.
