Default Speaker ring fitment issues

What rings do everybody use for Prv 8mb600ft Forte's? Speakers are rounded. I ordered jefe rings but was sent the one for center placement. I sent back and received ones for rear of bags. The rings fit perfect but the speakers are not fitting flush in them.

is that a ring that mounts on the outside of the bag, so that the speaker mounts in from the outside?. if so, the material might be a tad thin and need to be mounted to the bag to gain some stiffness and shape. maybe use some sort of gasketing material under the speaker basket before tightening it down to help give a good seal and make up for any imperfections.

Ring mounts inside of bags. I have pic of a friend's setup but can't seem to upload. I have the option of returning Prv's in exchange for ground zero yellow baskets. I'm really tired of all the fitment issues. Are the Forte's even worth the hassle?
