Im experimenting with string gaunge too.

Normaly im using 0.9 from D'Arrio but when I changed to Erie Slicky's I noticed I could tune my guitar in only 3 minutes playing and it would stay in tune. The other strings I could tune for like 3 days before they would stay in tune.
I also have a 0.11 on the Warlock ATM, also from Erie, I like the thinker lower strings.. gives a frim grip and sounds realy heavy :)

I once tried the 0.8 (D'Arrio) it snapped after 1.5 hours of playing, and yes, I like to do some bending or tremelo usage (or raping lol)
I also noticed that with a 0.8 I cant seem to get grip om the string it's realy slippery and when I wanted to bend sometimes I completely missed the string *lol*

For now I think the Erie 0.9 and 0.11 are great :)
Gonna try Fender strings next time I think.
