 mine are the wossner rings, so do they all send large gaps on their rings now or what? I've never had a set of rings to big I'm used to gaping them myself is this to prevent damage by people who don't check ring gaps and then blame the piston company when they damage their motor I can't think of any other reason why they would send them so big  :?

CR500 wossner rings also come at .018", SOMETIMES
The one i did last week was at .014"
should be .018-.020" on a single ring no question
I run that single ring stuff big tho, .022" for a race motor  :wink:
