One other thing, did you check the gap between the ends of the rings when compressed. If you squeeze the ring to where it bottoms out on the piston there should only be minimal gap according to the specs of your particular vehicle.

That also help keep the rings from rotating. As you well know when the piston is cold the gap will be larger. When both the piston and ring expands the gap is almost closed. That may be the reason for burning oil prematurely your gap may be too wide.
