So I found out that the best fit for me are the large comply's that came with the Westone 3. Can anyone recommend a similar tip to the large comply that would best fit my ear? I'm not a fan of the comply durability.

What I found with Shure Olives is that they tend to 'push' the W3 out, so after a while it gets quite uncomfortable.
 
I use mine with the Shure silicone (PA758), rub a bit of olive oil on the tips, then let the oil gets absorbed, after that, the silicone becomes super soft and will give you perfect seal and extremely comfortable

Thought about getting custom tips done?  Wish I'd done that instead of reshells tbh.

What I've found is the Comply's Spherical shaped, and the Shure Olives. I used both, a ton and maybe preferred  the Spherical a little more, as they tend to bring the mids out a little. I used large, and large olives also, and I had no problems of the Olives pushing out, as long as I got them down all the way on the stem.
