Best strings for tapping?

I have just ordered a book on two hand tapping workouts for bass and was wondering what the best strings would be for this technique.

Personal preference mostly, but stainless steel rounds would be a good start.

I agree. You need to the brightness of SS rounds. Lower gauge normally makes it easier as well.
