These are best 90% of the time.

AD marks can be used if you want lasthitting assistance and/or more damage the first 3 levels.

^pretty much this. Mp5/lvl glyphs are really nice on some specific champions, though if you're looking for a more general page, you can't go wrong with MR/lvl glyphs. Armor Seals and AD quints are pretty much a must-have unless you're going for a very specific page like DuffTime. Marks can be arpen or AD, nothing else.
Thanks to Jovy for the sig!

I still run 16+16@18 ad runes and 9-21-0 masteries for Ashe. It works for me. I don't get spiked down as easily, I can get into position with the extra 3% move speed without having to use quints and I can still last hit through the entirety of lane phase without having to resort to a Pickaxe before I get a B. F. Sword. It hasn't affected my ability to carry games not having Executioner or Havoc or Lethality or +6 armor pen.

Graves Taric is a different story.

Trying to rely on armor pen hasn't done very much for me. I haven't gotten much out of armor pen starting Berserker's Greaves>> Infinity Edge>> Zeal>> Last Whisper which seems like the best build most of the time for me.

^Well there's a good reason nobody uses AD/lvl runes. They're rubbish.

Want early damage? Get AD runes.

Want lategame damage? Get ArP runes.

Don't use AD/lvl runes.

You should also be running 21/9/0 instead of 21 defense, because the other 12 points you spend in defense are a lot worse than what you can get in offense. Defense really isn't worth it for AD carries after the first 9 points.

I run AD and Armor runes for most of my carries. It's proven to be a lot of help for me in top lane. Bottom lane too but not to a great extent as top lane.
