The combination that have the best review around here are MTB shoes with Time ATAC cleats and Time ATAC pedals. I initially started off on Road shoes with SPD-SL (like Look) cleats. I've heard that SPDs (the MTB ones) are easy to clip out because of the multi-release. Also egg-beaters are meant to be easy to clip out of (this is only a consideration if you're skidding). MTB shoes are easier to walk in but my road shoes and SPD-SLs seemed fine for float and clipping out. I never had premature de-cliption with my SPD-SLs. If you've already got road shoes and Look cleats/pedals I'd say just stick with them until you notice yourself clipping out too easily. If you don't. Don't change. If you do. MTB shoes and Time ATAC cleats are the best solution.
