ATE PremiumOne Ceramic Disc Brake Pads

I bought these AT AT749 ceramic pads when the new chassis hit the road 8 years ago. After 40 000 miles they're probably due for replacement.

For a weekend drive around (which is what this car has become lately) and no road course or auto cross in the immediate future, would these serve as a suitable replacement again?
I have no complaints about their performance or longevity. Or price for that matter. But I am open to alternatives. It may too that the ATE are unavailable.
Thanks

What would the alternatives be anyway other than the garden variety stuff?

Thanks Dave.
Checking out that link I see EBC offers a wide variety of pads. (Technically I'd be a 4th gen as I've swapped to the LS front and rear setup).

https://ebcbrakes.com/product/orange-stuff/

https://ebcbrakes.com/product/yellow...nd-track-pads/

https://ebcbrakes.com/product/redstuff-brake-pads/

All of the above are listed as suitable for street applications and also raceworthy.
Using EBC's calculator it seems that the Yellowstuff pads are recommended.
Fourth gen listings are provided for Red, Yellow and Bluestuff pads.

What else is out there?
