Vibration under braking, rear rotors warped

Had an issue with vibration under braking that has developed. Would not transmit through the steering wheel yet the bed would rattle so I knew it must be rear brakes. Pulled rear wheels and the LR had .011"TIR and the RR had .006 TIR. Question is why? Rear still have original pads, front replaced at 40K with EBC Greenstuff, they have .00025 run out, truck has 51K on it. Had ordered EBC rears but want to turn the rear rotors tomorrow and either re-install old pads or pads from Autozone. Is this kosher? OR just wait for the EBC pads. Iwould rather not sue the truck with the rear getting beat up by rotor runout.
