Mike's comment on considering all factors is good. I have had no trouble with my 556 (Black factory pads) or Silver brand (salmon kool stops) on Velocity Synergy rims. These are wider than many people use. My most recent bike came with centerpull braze ons so I am using a Mafac and centerpull is much better at stopping than any caliper I've used, long arm or short. I had Paul Neo Retros on a Saluki I used to have and they looked nice but I could never get the stopping power I wanted. I liked Aztec pads on them best, btw.
