Depends on a number of different things but the Gravity Shift is pretty smooth from what I've seen of it and the Spit Fire is a great medium oil ball.  From my own experience with Storm pieces I would think about an Original Agent (a must have for any Storm-Head) and a T-Road Pearl (for down lane flip).  After that it would depend on how much oil you see and if you want a higher hooking piece.  For that I would think about either an Attitude Shift, T-Road Solid or even another Agent (surface dulled down).

i didnt like the spit fire but i would say a good four to five ball arsenal would be:

Cell (or Special Agent)
Gravity  
Spit fire
Tropical Storm
plastic ball of your choice
--------------------
Bowl up a storm

Storm Shift Gravity
Storm Shift SLT PRO CG (overseas ball)
Storm Shift Attitude
Storm Shift
Storm Shift Global PRO CG (OVERSEAS)
Storm Special Agent
Storm Rapid Fire (sold it because it got a gash taken out of it and because of the messed up drill that it had and i dont like 2nd drill balls i'll have another one soon)
Storm Core Power LRG
Storm Eraser Boost
Storm EL NINO X-it
Storm Team Storm spare ball (blue and yellow)
(two one got scratched so it moves a little)

Monster Pike

I assume you want this arsenal for PBA experience/tournaments?  Then you definately would need a Solid above the Gravity.  Here's what I think.

4 Ball Arsenal
Attitude Shift
Your Gravity Shift
Your Spitfire
Spare ball

5 Ball
Attitude
Gravity
Spitfire
Jolt Pearl
Spare

I would suggest:
Gravity Shift
T-Road Solid
Spitfire
T-Road Pearl
Jolt Pearl

The gravity shift will give you the most overall hook while being still very angular.  The T-Road solid will allow you to have hook but with an earlier move to the pocket allowing you to move inside and carry if the gravity shift stops carrying in there.  The spitfire is an amazing ball, a little rollier ball allowing you to play up the boards on a medium shot.  The t-road pearl is my favorite storm ball of all time and is very versatile.  The Jolt pearl is amazing when they fry up and still carries then.   If you're looking for something that will handle a ton of oil if you are heading to tournaments or something, pick up a Paradigm Passion as well, my 2nd favorite storm of all time.
