Nylon Tapewound with a Hipshot D tuner?

Hey has anyone any experience using tapewounds on a bass with a d tuner? Have a Fender Tony Franklin fretless that I would like to use tapewounds on but and not confident the the tapewounds will hold up to sliding back and forth against the nut without being damaged?
 
LaBella white nylon tapes and Hipshot D tuner, strings have been on there a couple years, use the tuner a lot, no problem whatsoever. Total satisfaction with the Hipshot and tapes on my fretless.
