I would recommend Stoptech Street Performance. $200 for both axles, and they have significantly better high temp performance than stock without being noisy, dusty, or grabby on the street. Great pad. This is what ships with the Stoptech big brake kits, and lots of folks have found they work very well for dual duty in that application.

My experience is based on using them on a 2011 e92 for a track day at Roebling Road Raceway. This track is not terribly hard on brakes, but I wasn't taking it easy on them either. I have 20+ track days at Roebling (70+ total) and was keeping up fine in the Solo/Instructor group without going easy on my braking points. No fade, no weird deposits on the rotors, and no excessive pad wear.
