I need to buy a roll of wire that I'll be using for my BMS & balance leads. I think solid core makes sense but I'm open to suggestions. Do folks here have any go-to high-quality wire that they like to use in the 18-20AWG range?
 
Why do you want solid wire instead of stranded? Almost everything on the shelf at the local store for that size is stranded.

Stranded is fine too. Not looking to buy from any local store, they don't carry quality wire and I live out in the boonies.
 
I use the 18ga solid multi strand garden sprinkler wire. Its built to be buried so is very durable. I have 100's of feet of it in my yard and in sheds connecting 12 volt devices. Comes in many lengths and wire counts, 18/2, 18/5, 18/10...
