The ProForm 67655 Piston Ring Installation Tool seems to have mixed reviews from customers. Many found it to be easy and efficient to use, allowing them to quickly install pistons in their engines.

One customer mentioned that it started to wear out after installing the 6th piston, causing the rings to pop out of the groove. Another customer had to resize it multiple times while using it. These customers indicated that the tool may not be suitable for repeated use or for professional mechanics. On a more positive note, one customer praised the tool for its simplicity and versatility. They mentioned that it is not as complicated as band clamp compressors or as expensive as fixed tapered compressors. All you need to do is slide the piston inside, tighten the clamp, and hammer the piston in. It is designed to work with virtually any piston size. Another customer mentioned that while it works well as an adjustable ring compressor, it is not as effective as a tapered ring compressor.
