Can I suggest that unless you take your truck to the track and are prepared to clean out the holes on a regular basis that you go a solid rotor.

I have always run drilled rotors on track cars but would steer clear of them for a road vehicle for the following reasons.

1. Reduced lifespan (about 10 - 15% less)
2. Increased maintenance (cleaning out the holes with compressed air very regularly
3. Reduced pad life due to higher friction coefficients

If you want the holes for aesthetics then go for it but for a road car there are only downsides to solid discs (performance and safety related). Oh and the main one, solid rotors are cheaper

As for the EBC pads I love EBC pads they are nice and smooth in gentle braking and solid during high load braking.
