I would suggest 0.5mm pads, so two 4 mil (apr. 0.1 mm) traces can come out between the pads . Drilling with 0.3 (apr. 0.2 after plating with a 0.4 mm pad for 1.27 spaced BGA has been done for me 5 years ago and is being done now, but since the 0.4 rather than 0.5 won't buy another trace you will be better off at 0.5. Whether the whole mess is routable on two layers is of course another matter... I have enough overhead routing at 3 traces between pads with 1.27 BGAs, but it may well be (not easily) doable.
