Kinda figured based on the time, thought it was odd though that you're so against them.

Now, I will be honest when I say, that the 2mm varity usually don't do the severe damage. And in fact, may be considered by some to be "normal(ish)" wear marks. But the fact is, that both the 2mm and 3mm leave chatter marks every time.

I refuse to pay for, or suport a seal that does damage to your engine during its running life just because it's "un breakable".

Certainly you've got more experience with these seals than I do. In the roughly 15k miles that I've been using these seals they haven't really left any chatter marks on top of what was already there. I'm also running the stock OMP with an RA adapter and idemitsu plus 1/4oz per gallon in the tank so I'm probably over oiling the engine in certain situations, maybe that's helping? I won't argue that they leave chatter marks compared to the factory seals, but they have saved a few of my engines which is one of the reasons I run them. In my case they've really prolonged my engines.

So, what do you rec?
