Has anyone upgraded to a good STREET brake pad?

Since trading my E90 M3, which had awesome brake bite/feel from the stock system, even when swapping to race pads regularly for the track, I've been disappointed w/the factory brake bite/feel from the new fixed caliper brake systems. My 2015 M4, and now my 2017 M2 (same brakes, obviously), both exhibit a bit of a soft pedal feel and low initial bite w/the factory set up. This changed dramatically on the M4 w/racing pads (Pagid RSL-1 and RS-29) when on track. Braking bite, feel, and performance is excellent.

I'm considering looking into the Stoptech "Sport" and "Street" brake pads for my M2. Something w/a performance upgrade in the areas of initial bite/feel for the factory braking system. Anyone used these? Feedback?

I'm not worried about noise, dust, etc. Also not concerned about track performance, as I swap to racing pads for HPDE days.

Thanks!!!!!
