If you can double your budget you can get some Dynamic Friction or PowerStops from Jegs or Summit Racing. I'd trust those over some no name brand at Walmart
Get the EBC RedStuff kit from FCP. I've had them on several cars and it's exactly what you describe. They held up to some AutoCross as well.
DBA 4000 T3 high-carbon rotors and EBC Red Stuff pads improved modulation for me significantly.
EBC Redstuff for the street, low dust keeps the wheels looking nice.
I got mine February this year, M5 F90, Pre-LCI (2019), just about 40k miles; Lovely car and I have been daily it. Just like other have said, get one that has been looked after and serviced. For me, it was an approved used and was just serviced before collecting it, it had new brake pads and discs, the OEM pads are awful and replaced them with EBC Yellow stuff brake pads, I would recommend if you ever need to replace pads.
Recent maintenance includes upgraded Power Stop K5866 front and rear carbon fiber brake pads with drilled and slotted rotors for improved stopping power.
Put Powerstop Z23’s on my 997 and love them. Low dust and the price is hard to beat.
I always used EBC black organic pads; I tried HH pads briefly a few times but never liked the feel, especially in the rain.
Only pad I've had torque change on was EBC yellow, once it gets close to backing plate the brake torque drops off a cliff, I suspect it's the adhesive they used
don't do the Yellowstuff unless you are on board with a LOT of brake dust.
