Stainless, die-drawn inners, lined outers. The coefficient of friction of Teflon/Teflon and Teflon/steel are almost identical so I do not see the performance gain from coating the inner.
And the coated inners can sometimes be a bear to clamp securely; I generally end up scrapingwire-wheeling the coating off where I clamp them. PITA.
