All sliding caliper brakes suck and have terrible pedal feel. (Which is why the G80 M3's brakes are such a joke.)
IMO, the X5's brakes are tolerable with cheap textar pads. They provide among the best brake feel possible, short of using an aggressive pad with major other compromises. (The Hawk HP+ feels like a track pad, but works at street temperatures. If they figured out a way to make them not shriek like banshees, I'd run them in everything.)
So yeah, nothing is ever going to make some shitty sliders feel good. But you absolutely can make them feel worse. Akebonos feel worse.
