Similar to D'Addario

I order all of my strings from Juststrings and they just informed me that D'Addario will not be making Super Long Scale .110 strings, but still will make .130 Super Long Scale strings in ProSteels. Strange.....I don't feel too comfortable mixing strings, so can anyone recommend me strings that sound close to D'Addario Pro Steels?

Need two sets: .045, .065, .085, .105, .125 and .050, .070, .090, .110, .130.

Definitely looking for that piano string tone and something that is not as rough as the Warwick strings. Stainless steel and something that is not nickel plated (I am allergic to nickel). If the ratio of stainless steel in the string is higher than the nickel, then I will be alright.

Perhaps there's some useful insight here: DR Hi Beams vs. D'Addario Pro Steels
