Default Broke a Vitara 75.5mm piston ring, where to buy another set?

So long story short my night of piston installing ended early because I snapped a #2 compression ring in half with my ring installer openning it to much.

They are NPR rings that came with the 75.5mm vitaras, Im assuming I need to buy an entire set of piston rings, but I cant even find that for sale.

Can anyone help me out My face must have dropped when I did it, I expected to get the entire engine assembled tonight

Appreciate any help

SWH30362 for 0.20 it may be SWH30362.020
just go on*ebay*order some d16z6 rings in .020 over 88-95 year
rings are the same as vitara 1.2 1.5 2.8

And just remember rings have a top and a bottom side.

The part number is for 75mm bore as best I can figure out but it points you to people that should sell oversized rings

http://www.perfectengine.com has them iirc

Rings are pretty universal. Most piston companies don't change ring thickness from the oem piston
