Default 1320wheels 5 lug Conversion brake help?

I just ordered the Timken 5 lug conversion from 1320 wheels. My question is anyone who has done this, do you all re-drill the factory rotors? If so, who can do this for me? I can't find much for replacement front brakes besides a strange setup which this is a street truck so i need more brake up front and those are not recommend for street.

Anyone point me in the right direction? Im located in South Florida if anyone knows anyone down here that does the rotors.

Thank you!

I'm sure if you contacted 1320 wheels they could give you some insight. Derek is a good dude.

I made a jig out of a billet specialties wheel spacer to redrill the stock rotors.

I already emailed him. He said that people redrilled their oem rotors and he doesn't have any experience with other brake methods for the front.

There's got to be a aftermarket brake system that isn't drag race only conversions. ibcant find much but does anyone know if there's a aftermarket blank rotor? Anyone know who can redrill my own rotors if all else fails? I here moser stopped doing it.
