If you were using the D'Addario mandola set, say, on a 16" mandola, you could change out one of the G strings for a .016" plain steel string and one of the Cs for a .027 phosphor bronze and come pretty close to the original tension of the lower strings.

C, .052" PB == 25.07#

D .025" PB == 29.02#
G .016" PL == 23.11#
C .027" PB == 26.93#
