Best replacement brake pads ?

Hi all I have gotten a new set of wheels there nice, shiny. The one problem I'm having is the edge of the rim is polished and dosnt give for a great braking surface. The original pads are raleigh. The caliper I have on the rear is a weinnman 700 not great at all, the front is the weinnman 650 which is Abit better it think. The pads on the rear have a sponging surface built over the rubber. I am wondering is there any good replacement pads I can use, also can they be modern pads or do they have to be the old style I will post pics later on as I'm am not at the laptop.

Thanks
