Pads for Tektro brakes

Now the wet weather is here I've had a couple of heart stopping moments when trying to brake in a hurry and think new pads are in order. The Koolstop Salmons seem to get a good review but I can't work out what ones I need :oops: Does anyone know what pads will fit Tektro R350 brakes
Thanks
Jim

Bit more info that may help, the holders are Aztec (have a small screw holding the pads in place) and the pads themselves are about 55mm long by about 10mm wide

Could be these.

There the ones i use for my tektro R580. If you loosen the screw and can slide the pad out of the holder and it looks like the above, then its probably the right one.
Might be cheaper somewhere else though.Pinno, מלך אידיוט וחרא מכונאי0 -
Not sure about the koolstops but I recently fitted these to my bike and they seem reasonably effective:
