When to replace Rear Rotors?

When to replace Rear Rotors?
I've eclipsed the 70k mile marker, and I'm on my THIRD set of Front Rotors& Pads, not counting ONE lathing on EACh of the first TWO sets!!
All the While, I STILL have the OEM Rear Rotors on the car. Although - I DID switch-out the pads to Hawk HPS around 30k miles.
I get ALOT of squealing from the rear shims, and occaisionally re-apply brake quiet material to quell the offending noises, but not often enuff.
Question is this: How do I tell when my REAR BRAKE rotors need to be replaced??
Pads still have life, but the rotors are starting to look a bit blue and discolored, although I can tell no difference in performance -- or have I just gotten complacent?!
Anyway -- just looking for a bit of advice.
I'm tempted to just throw-in a new set when time permits....but money's a bit tight these days.
input welcome!
