Stories of rings "dying" are relatively rare. What setup are you running, and what specifically happened to your old ones?

running too rich could have cause the rings to wear pre-mature. also didyou check the cyl. walls tomake sure its still in good condition?

never really heard of oem rings giving out sosoon, unless something caused it.
