I bought Zimmerman cross-drilled rotors off eBay from a Canadian seller and saved a bunch of cash on them compared to US retailers online.

The pad question has a lot to do with brand preference and you'll find many threads debating which ones are better than others. I am running Pagid blacks right now with my new cross-drilled rotors and they sure do stop better than my Textar ones I had one previously, but the dust on the rims has increased substantially too.

I am not sure if this is due to the fact that I went from solid to cross drilled or not.

Although you didn't ask, doing the disc and pad swap is super easy, especially if you have a Motive power bleeder. Don't pay someone to do it if you have a garage, a couple of hand tools and a floor jack and jack stands. The money you'll save would even pay for all these things if you don't own them.
