Default Wiseco 81mm GSR piston rings?

I might be picking up a used set of Wiseco pistons, and they need new piston rings.

Do I have to order replacement rings from Wiseco, or do I have other options (Nippon, JE, Total Seal, etc.)? How much do they run, and who are some good sellers for them?

Alright, I just won the auction for $66 shipped

So I need:

- Piston rings for at least 2 of the pistons

- Possibly one new piston (which would come with rings anyways)

I'd get new piston rings, just to be on the safe side. I recently one a used set of SRP pistons off ebay, and buy new rings just to be safe. But the seller told me the rings were used, so I had no choice.

You must run new rings on all of the pistons. Re-using rings is a very bad idea and is not recommended.

Any piston dealer can supply you with rings, drop me a PM if you need help. Whatever you run, don't run total seal. I am not a fan of those at all.
