Make sure there's no grooves or obvious wear on them. Hot spots are fine. Hot spots should be fairly evenly distributed, otherwise they might be pointing to warpage. A wear groove on the clutch plate fingers is normal, but you have to make the call on what's excessive.

The disk should have friction material above the rivets, about 1/16", and you should see the factory grooves in the friction material. Make sure the hub and springs look intact.
