Thinking my Mugello needs a new set of rings but I can see they vary in price tremendously....or are out of stock ...or are in Germany ......
Can anyone see a problem in fitting these ??

The dimensions are the same ???

Rimini sell these to fit a casa 185 kit,they might fit your piston.If you ring Dean at Rimini he'll tell you if they fit.MB usually stock them but they're out of stock,but in their add they say that these fit Mugello and Casa pistons.https://www.lambrettaspares.com/spares/ ... g6400.html

Another option would be contact Mitaka UK and see if they can help you, lots of imformation on their site about crown height, skirt length etc, you may find it possible to use something like a standard Suzuki TS 185 ER piston that way you get a superior piston to what your using now + the rings will always be easy to get when you want them.

Ok , cheers boys , I would have thought rings designed for nicasil cylinders would be fine but I stand to be corrected ..

But Casa and Mugello are nicasil lined.

Yes if they match the dimensions of the ring grooves on your piston.
