Hello, long time bass playa, always loved the sound of Rotosound 66 strings but, those steel babies WILL eat your frets!!!
When one project band needed a "darker" sound, I tried the Daddario EXL165... nickel strings are easy on the frets and the tone is primo...

Very clanky when new, feels kinda stiff under the fingers and they don't last very long.
I've never been a big fan of the D'Addario sound/feel but it had been over a decade since the last time I tried them so I thought I'd give them another chance. I still don't like them. Apart from certain dirt cheap "in house" brands they're one of my least favourite bass strings.
If I need this style of sound I'd rather use the Fender 7250. They're made by D'Addario too and sound quite similar but with a bit more warmth/power in the lower mids.
Lots of people like them though. It's all about personal taste.

If you like your strings THIKK, get this set. I tuned it to C on a 4-string bass guitar (used .135 to .65) and it sounds huge.
