if they have been scored in past then the rust will stay in them places untill the disc metal wears that far.

In all fairness id just go to a pattern parts place and get some pads and discs, wont set you back more than about £50 for the lot and you will be on the safe side.

But make sure you bed the brakes in as they wont stop very well for a few hundred miles so just take slowly
