One thing that gets thrown around is Diff Rings / Plates and what brand you use, I run a
Roche P12 and the standard Roche rings are a little soft, the tend to gouge really quickly.

I've been running AE and they're really good, I've tried CRC they let too much dirt in due to their shape.
They are good rings but don't sit on the Roche hub as well as I'd like. I've been recommended RC Square rings as being "the best" (you know RC everyone has an opinion), are there any others worth considering?
I've heard of those but I can't find them anywhere to be able to buy them. I've been running the TKO rings on my Roche and I'm very happy with them. They are the same shape as CRC so you may have the same issues, but I haven't noticed them collecting any more dirt than any others.
