The only rings that will fit in the stock pistons is stock rings.
I have not found any aftermarket rings for the stock ring dimensions.
There are a couple piston manufactures using thicker, wider rings, but the grooves in the pistons must be deeper, and wider to fit the more stout rings.
Not necessary to upgrade unless your pushing 200HP nitrous or 25 psi boost IMO...
In fact the heavier rings will create more frictional drag for naturally aspirated engines and more parasitic loss. Guaranteed.
