True, I generally enchant Daedric Armor with Fortify Strength, which
more than compensates for the weight of the armor. My favorite Daedric
Armor item is the Daedric Tower Shield which holds a HUGE Constant
Effect Fortify Strength Spell! Granted there are some enchanted armor
items in the game (like gauntlets and maybe helms) that hold more
powerful enchantments than their Daedric counterparts, so it's not
always worthwhile enchanting all your daedric armor items...
As for Daedric weapons, most of them can hold some Serious Damage on
Strike enchantments! Though it's not worth the trouble to enchant
daedric arrows when it's easy to buy Cheap enchanted arrows from the
Fletcher Shop in the Vivec Foreign quarter lower levels (when using the
Official Fletcher Shop mod).

I like to wear the "Boots of Blinding Speed" instead of trying to create
Lesser CE Fortify Speed Spells on items... Granted the blinding effect
of the boots is a negative factor, however a simple 3-4 second Resist
Magic spell (based on your characters magic resisance) will allow your
character enough time to put on the boots and Resist the blinding effect
from the boots. And rather than feather, Fortify Strength is more
useful because it Also increases your weapon/fist damage when you hit
someone. One of my favorite CE spells for more than one clothing items,
is Chameleon since it makes my characters harder to hit, and it
increases their success when sneaking/stealing...
That's my 2¢,
