Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: Will these rings fit both the HCR and Sno-Pro versions of the M8? A: Yes, this set is listed for standard bore M8 engines across both trims for 2007 through 2009. Measure the bore and confirm the piston part number before ordering.

Q: What should be checked before installing new rings? A: Inspect the cylinder for scoring and taper, then check ring end gap in the bore. Correct gap and a clean crosshatch help the new rings seat properly.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
