I used to go with the better lines at the major parts stores, but their quality has nosedived over the past 20 years. Any more I go with OEM. If not available, I get whatever the best line is from NAPA. NAPA isn't the premium parts dealer they once were years ago. However, I have fewer fitment or quality issues with their parts, even recently. Just don't go cheap with their "value" or "fleet" lines, those are the same crap all the others sell.
Until I started running semi trucks, I never cared about brake parts much. Just get the cheapest and get on down the road. What you find out with an abusive use case like that is that the cheaper pads are cheap for a reason. Usually low quality lining and adhesives, weak or no corrosion protection, and bad fit. They may work, at first. But you'll end up with problems sooner than with a higher quality part.
If any Ram diesel owners haven't discovered them yet, check out
Geno's Garage for service parts. They're primarily mail order, but will do "will call" pickups at their warehouse in Cumming GA (5 miles from my house LOL) if you call in the order. Large selection of genuine Mopar service parts with zero counterfeit risk, along with some proven alternate brands. My biggest bang for the buck there has been fuel filters. If you've bought fuel filters from a dealer, you already know they're gold plated. Geno's sells the exact same filter at a normal price. They're a small business that caters to enthusiasts, so they won't sell crap. No, I don't work there. Just a satisfied customer for the past 10 yrs.
