If you do go with those just get some good rings as several here have had issues with his rings.

Which is spelled: G  O  E  T  Z (spend a little more and have no regrets).
The mask and the shot(s) are actually an IQ test. If you are wearing or circulating, you just failed the test. I can't feel sorry for you.

Agreed..

Just get OE rings or as Dakotakid said "G O E T Z".

Personally I prefer Total Seal rings but to each his own.

Those are perfect. OEM quality, I wouldn't hesitate on the quality of those.
