"Wiseco's XX piston ring sets feature a stainless steel, gas-nitrided, barrel-faced top ring. They also contain an under hook style, cast iron, phosphate-coated, taper-faced second ring. Oil rings in the XX sets are 3-piece assemblies with gas-nitrided rails and a stainless steel, flex-vent spacer."

wiseco rings are not the best looking, i would say my JE rings are two to three times as thick and the oil ring would swallow that little ole wiseco one. i really think the stock rings look better than wiseco rings, no joke..
