No I know I can get a new set of rings...aren't "service rings" a set that is very slightly oversized for higher mileage/more worn engines?

Service rings isn't an expression we use this side of the pond - we're just boring and call them oversize! Yes you can get them - look on any of the parts sites and you'll see them listed as 0.5mm oversize.

You do know that you can't just pop on oversize rings though don't you - you have to use the oversize piston as well. Apologies if it's grannies and eggs.

Yes requires oversized pistons...Just investigating options cause my cylinders are getting close to service limit...I am just going to get new regular set of rings and do a basic light honing and reassemble.
