You don't say anything about the tone you're looking for, so it's hard to help.

On the right bass the Chromes are fabulous strings, especially when they break in and fill out.

Brite Flats don't sound much like most other flats I've played. If i want a flat set that cuts through more and that can get aggressive, Sadowskys float my boat. For thump LaBella Deep Talking Flats (760FL or Jamerson Old Originals) both do the job for me on most basses I've tried them on.

Get Chromes , Brite Flats despite their name are actually half rounds and therefore do not really sound like flatwounds , Chromes will give you a clear , bright (for flats) sound with plenty of low end
