Anyone know where to buy FRS piston rings?

As title really.

I assume they are not the same as any other 2.0ltr zetec

Cheers

OK I now have a set of FRS pistons/rods and have no emails back off the above.

I have measured the rings and they are 84.8mm bore
the layout is: 1.50mm, 1.75mm and 2.00 mm

Can anyone help

It's not really shocking at all. Most blocks will be fucked by the time you need new rings so simply replacing rings is not a proper thing to do. Ford sell complete bottom ends for their engines and do not sell oversize pistons and as has been found, rings either.

Im not shocked at Ford to be honest, but not being able to find one manufacturer of pistons/rings that makes them does. The N/A 2.0 kit is 2/3rds of the way there anyway.
