I've got my K-7 tuned to F A# D# G# C# F# A# with a 74 on the low and a regular 13-56 set. In my experience, for a 25.5" you'd be best off using a 14-68 set (14-18-26-44-56-68) with an 84 on the bass side. I'm sure if you talked to D'addario they could hook you up with a custom string set like that.

I wouldn't recommend using the strings I did in such tuning, as it just sounds like mud and the strings can't hold the tuning very well at all. Back to using my 11-49-64 in B.
