Well when you have a chrome bore the options are few, iron rings and steel rings, NO chrome plated or stainless so the stock iron rings are a good choice, one of the processes I have been using for the last 40 or so years is teflon impregnation by a comany called EMC Process Co a NASA space shuttle off shoot, no sh-t rocket science. I have two engines apart that will be getting treated one a brand new 50cc for a wear test, I have only used this process on two 2 strokes but on nearly 100 four strokes engines and manual trans it might be the answer to short bore life on the chinese motors.
