Most likley the rotors if you pull a wheel off and manualy turn the rotor you may be able to see it (looking end on or at the caliper distance fron the disk) if it is a lot of movement machining may make them too thin depends how hot they were when the were run into a puddle in all this rain.

Could also be wheel bearings or a sticky piston in the brake caliper. Easy (and free) to check these things first :wink:
