Hello Max - well, I have a set of Elixirs on my acoustic and I really like them. They seem to have a mellow tone and I find playing fingerstyle much easier (for me) with them than on the non-coated strings. Of course, that could be all in my head too...The only advice I can give you on strings is to go with what sounds good to you for what you're trying to play.

Yeah, I know. Not the greatest advice. Stick around. The other folks here will have much more informed opinions.
