What is "good"? What do you want the pad to do/not do?

What pad shape do the calipers use? A unique one, with a selection of compounds? Or an OE shape from a certain car?

They are ap racing calipers. I am basically looking for a pad that would be close to oem for street use.

For street use...just go get some stoptech streets. They're cheap.

I use the same pad shape as the cp5200 in GLOC GS1's on the front and OEM rears on the street and R12/R10 on track. The GS1's dont dust, no noise and seem to last forever. The only pain is the dust from the OEM pads making it look like I only clean the fronts.
