best heavy gauge strings?

[Bigwig]

Hi ya'll. I dont know much about different tunings. But with one of the bands im currently in, I've got my A, D and G strings all tuned down one fret from strandard, and my E string tuned down 3 frets from standard.
The medium/light guage strings that are currently on my bass just wont cut it, since im getting insane amonts of rattle from that E string.
Im wondering what are the best kind of strings to get for what im tunning in.
Thanks alot.

You may want to try a 110 E string.

would that be thick enough?
and should i stick with medium gauge for the other three strings?

Try out some light guage (say .120-.40) 5 string sets and use the bottom 4 strings

Do you know what gauges you use now? I know a guy who plays drop C tuning with medium gauge strings, .105, and it works. Or like you say try a heavy set (.110).

Right now Im just using standard ernie ball super slinkies, but I'm definatly going to go with the 110 E string I think, I just want it to be nice and tight. The rattling kills me.

Another option is tuning all the way down to B-E-A-D, and use a 5 string set, but just discard the G string. You may need a new nut or at least have yours reslotted.
