Are you planning to dive them in BC, Canada? That's not warm water, right. Unless your location isn't that I would say that forget about Al:s and concentrate on which steels. I doubt you dive wetsuit or t-shirt under your drysuit in BC.
I dive SM in cold water and it's no fun with AL tanks because you will need lead, and sometimes even re-clipping with butt-light issues (never need extra of that with drygloves). With steels you are golden even with heavier exposure because you only need a little bit of extra weight, mostly for trim issues.
