Like some said, I have tried different set up, and finally the one I feel confident with, and that seem to fit with the music I play, is the traditional 22 12 13 16.
I have tried 22x18, and really prefer the 16" depth : for transportation reason and sensation. I would have preferred less deep Tom than those I have (12x10 - 13x11).
I like my 10" Tom but I can do without easily - still, it's fun to add it's voice sometimes.
The worst size I have come to play are really the hyperdrive, how can this Tom sound fits to any music ? Very personal of course, but to me a Tom should sound like a Tom, not like a snare drum with the wires off...
I would build my kit, I think would go 22x16, 12x8, 13x9, 16x14 (which is finally a great floor Tom size.) and no die cast hoops ;-)
And it seems, that this basic kit configuration doesn't exist except Sakae.
