Same size as Umnitza rings. Google their 1 series rings.

The condensation is just an inherent problem because of the design/manufacturing process of the DEPOs. The best solution would be to get it professionally sealed.

I had mine sealed by Luis@OSS Designs after he installed the OSS rings and have yet to have any problems with water. I leave it in the rain/car washes and no problems

Shoot Luis@OSS an email and see if he will sell you the V4 rings by themselves?

You have the e82 DEPOs?
