Wiseco big bore - using OEM circlips

Can OEM Suzuki circlips be used with Wiseco pistons (that cost more than 21 quid a set:)) or do I have to use Wiseco circlips too? I ask as the bore kit was low milage used so I have to renew the circlips. Thanks for any info.

I was told once that Wiseco use a different circlip as the groove in the piston is deeper, I can't confirm this just what I was told, but may explain the extra cost of them.

I'm sure someone will be along to clear this up ;)

I will dig both types out and compare. Obviously, it will be preferable to use OEM if possible due to cost and ease of sourcing compared with the Wiseco clips.
