I have a 30-inch scale 5-string bass for which I'm looking for a set of flatwound strings. I would like to go with nickel wraps. Higher tension would be a plus.

I found the La Bella RX-N5A strings online (see below)... seems to check all the boxes, although they're pricey.

Anyone know of any other options?

What if I went with stainless wraps?

Big thanks!
