Advice for good quality piston rings?

[itiejim]

I'm putting together a lightly blown K-series engine (about 0.7 bar). It'll be carefully built with a nitrided crank, Malhe motorsport bearings and ductile liners etc and I was looking for advice on piston rings.

In the past, with NA builds, I've trusted good quality (but OE) Malhe rings or similar. I have been offered a set of TP-Goeze ones on this occasion, but are they any good? I'm (perhaps mistakenly) concerned by the fact that they're made in China....

Any experience with Total Seal?

Thanks for all the feedback folks, I'll stick with properly gapped TP Goetzes then I think. James.
