Which 84mm Piston ring set to go with?

I am freshening up my block and have a set of 84mm CP 9.0:1 compression pistons. I was going to go with CP pistons rings, but I was wondering are there any alternatives? Any other good brands that I should look into? Thanks!

You can also use Total Seal.

I'd recommend sticking with the CP rings.

Best to use what was designed for the piston. Total Seal could work if you want to if you have an unknown piston or one of a truly custom configuration, but its best to just use what you have with the piston
