It depends on the rim material and, to a lesser extent, also the weather conditions you will mainly be riding in.
Assuming aluminium rims, either Kool Stop or Swiss Stop. Do your homework a bit as they both are offered in different compounds depending on usage ie wet or dry conditions. (if you have carbon rims - I haven't a clue!)
I am using both on different bikes. They are quite expensive and will probably wear quicker than cheaper pads - but that is good. It's better than the wheel rim wearing.
OK. Letap73 beat me to it, but I use Kool Stop salmons on my best bike which is (mainly) used in the dry. Although they are almost worn down now and I have just ordered some Swiss Stop black - for no other reason than to try them and compare.
I have Swiss Stop green on the winter bike and they are very good.

Kool stop -the black ones are also good for alloy rims.
