Heads For Gretsch Renowns

Hi All,
I recently purchased a set of Gretsch Renowns and just wanted to see what other people were using for heads. I still have the stock evans G-2 heads although I currently have a remo powerstroke on the kick. I decided to try it out agianst the Emad and seems to sound pretty good. I play mostly rock and I tend to use remo heads, however I am open to try some others. Thoughts? Toms are 8" x 7" , 10" x 8" , 12" x 9" , 16" x 14"

I use Evans G2 coated over Evans G1 clear

When I bought my Gretsch Renowns early last year the only thing I changed was their resonant heads on the toms and the batter on the bass drum keeping the G2 clear batter heads. I put Evans G1 clear heads on the toms resonant side. The drums originally came with a 7 mil reso head and putting a 10 mil head on the toms gave them a bit more bottom to their sound. I also went with an Evans EQ4 batter head on the bass. The Renowns are a truly exceptional set of drums.
