Default Goetze piston rings?

Other than Deves rings that I found are NOT recommended to use in the 4.5L 82 motor and super expensive OEM rings, is there any other alternative?

I bought one set of OEM rings to fix a problem with #8 piston, but I really wanted to replace all the rings if I could. My motor has 85K miles on it.

I found a source for Goetze rings in 95mm that will work, but I have read there may be problems with those rings.

Thanks!

I have a complete set of 8 brand new 4.5L pistons with brand new piston rings. They are all still in the boxes from Porsche. Let me know if you are interested.

Goetze are the OEM - so buy from Porsche and you will get Goetze rings.
