Seems like there's a few different options out there. What do you use to replace your worn out, crusty rubbers?

Original Rubber Rings
Titan Silicone Rubber Rings
Translucent Rubber Rings
PerfectPlay™ Silicone Rubber Ring
Super-Bands™ Colored Polyurethane Rubber Rings
Saturn Synthetic Rubber (Urethane) Rings

Here's the list of games i'm going to shop soon:

Fireball
Grand Lizard
Haunted House
Hulk EM
Indiana Jones
Iron Man
Jurassic Park
Lord of the Rings
Medieval Madness
Medusa
No Good Gofers
Pink Panther
Sea Witch
Space Shuttle
Star Gazer
Star Trek the Next Generation
Stargate
Terminator 2
The Addams Family

I’ve made the jump to Titans for rings and don’t see myself going back. Although I don’t use their posts, I prefer the Cliffy ones, and I like Superbands for flipper rubbers.

Marco PRW is first choice usually.
Especially for EM’s and SS.
Has the best aspects of classic pinball feel.

PL Perfect Play are great but limited sizing doesn’t allow you to finish a lot of games.
They are however, a tad bit bouncier than the Titan stuff, which I like.
Titan has the best selection hands down (if you want color) and their rings are durable for the most part but, I tend to like the Perfect Play more; especially for flipper rubber.
The rest of the odds and ends are usually a mix bag.
Cliffy for normal posts and Perfect Play for the thin Stern posts.

Hope that helps PAC.

100%. I only use Titans but for some reason every post I have ever gotten from them splits to pieces in a Very short time. Rings are great just can't recommend the posts.

That's all I use anymore. The quality is better than any others I have tried and always consistent, and I really like the fact that once the job is done, it is done right and they last a real long time. No chalky rubbers for me!
