Default any quick temporary fix for bad rings?

my rings are shot, shooting major dark smokescreens after hitting VTEC and beyond. I was told my rings are "collapsing" My friend said if I go with 15-40 oil, it might not smoke as much. Any other suggestions for a temp fix? I don't have time to get new rings/pistons for my motor, but for the past couple months, I've been going through 2-3 quarts of oil a week(if I drive the hatch consistently) any help would be appreciated. thanks
