Default engine help?

ok i have a b16a and the two middle clnyders are leaking from the rings i did a dry compression test it was 175 80 125 187 so i did a wet compression test now its 210 160 125 206 then we did cynlder leak test found leak in rings now what do you think i should do sell? fix just rings or go with ctr pistions and new rings? but if i do that will i need to do crank and rods and all that or is it strong enough if i do keep it its all motor just to let you know im not turboing it or nothing oh by the way i have just spend 2k on drivetrain componets so what should i do??/

you can upgrade to ctr pistons, no need to upgrade crank nor rods. rods or piston is going to have to be milled 1mm off each side to fit the piston.
that will give about 11.5 compression.
