Default strings for K65ce ?

Since this is my 12 string, the K65ce, I was wondering if anyone can recommend strings that they use. Chances are I'll stick with light strings so that it's always in standard EADGBE turning. Also, in your opinion, which string breaks the easiest so that I could possibly buy a few extra of that one string? any thoughts?

I have been really into silk for a long time.

Try it and see if you like...very mellow and a little muted.

I feel the silks tend to tone down the sharpnes caused by the koa top.

I use D'Addario lights on my 855, and Elixir Nanoweb lights on my K55. The G string is the one that breaks more often for me, though I do tend to snap a D & B here and there too.
