You can save your fairly new pads for the next pad change and the rotor that was replaced as a spare...

You can always unplug the ABS or take the fuse out and drive to verify it still acts up without the ABS being active.
Good luck.
PS> I put off doing my 98's front brakes which were doing something similar until I was ready to do all three, pads, calipers, rotors. OEM quality pads, no ceramics, no longlife metallics, and the car felt like it was fresh off the showroom for stopping and characteristics of the brakes.
It had a grabbing at higher speeds after it had warmed up the high spot on the rotor and did not do it at lower speeds in town because the high spot never got reheated. I lubbed the slides on the caliper, freed the piston up, but nothing seemed to fix it. At 60K or so, just changed everything. I did put on quality Raybestos top line (not drilled and slotted) rotors.
