Topic: Yngwie Malmsteen strings?

I'm ordering my new RG here very soon, maybe tonight, and I'm ordering an extra set of strings.  The only electric strings I've ever tried were Ernie Ball Hybrid Slinkys, 9-46.  I liked them, but I found bends I little tougher to do on the top strings.  I'm looking now at a set of Dean-Markley Yngwie Malmsteen 8-46's.  I like the idea of extra lights on top, with a slightly heavier bottom.  Anyone use these?

Malmsteen's heavier bottom?

Must be the reason he has trouble getting into those leather pants these days ;-)
