Eldon, the rare earth magnets are rather strong I believe. If you want to experiment with different strengths, sure. They are a bit pricey.
But one of the common magnets used in pickups are Alnico5.
Get them in all shapes and sizes here http://www.jobmastermagnets.com/

Bent, what size do you use for your pickups?

Paul, I use Alnico 5, 3/4" long and 1/4" diameter
