My experience, not much help.
A few months back I changed my front OEM pads (no shaking, but thin) with locally available "American Black" metallic pads ( I suppose somebody is going to set on fire a couple of buildings because of the name) and resurfaced the original OEM rotors (they looked like new after).
Did poor break-in. Couple of weeks later same problem as yours, steering shake (not brake pedal) when breaking down from around 40mph.
Shaking didn’t go away so after 2-3 months, new Brembo rotors and Akebono ceramic pads with proper break-in (empty streets due to COVID).
Since, now 2 months later there hasn’t been any shaking. Improved breaking.
Got the feeling proper break-in made the difference.
Maybe having resurfaced again the original rotors and proper break-in would have fix the problem.
