I concurr with you Dean. These tuning pins are so close together that if you go with #4, they will be rubbing against neighbour strings and will make your tunings extremely difficult (tune one unison the next note goes out etc.).

It isn’t that much more to put on some quality Arledge bass strings. I’d use a #3 pin, no reaming, add a couple of drops of thin CA to the hole before inserting the pin.
