Default Wiseco pistons for a 97 Type R?

I am getting my engine rebuilt. A local shop had told me that Wiseco pistons would be a good choice for an NA setup, they offer both pressed in pin and floating pin setups. What do you guys think about the Wiseco pistons, are they any good?

Wiseco is an excellent choice. I've heard their pistons expand/contract less than some other brands of forged pistons. This is what I'm using in the new setup.

i don't have any real world experiences with wiseco pistons or actually ANY forged pistons for that matter , but i've usually heard good things about wiseco pistons. you definitely wouldn't be the first person to run these pistons either.
