Todd:

I would recommend a set of KoolStop pads (the Salmon colored ones).  I replaced my Ultegra pads with these and they stop better, modulate better, and seem to wear on the wheel less.
And while they aren't always cleaning the rim as is the case with disk brakes, I've never noticed any problems on wetter rides, but my experience is limited to light showers and water left on the road after a shower.
