That's where you should put them when assembling the motor but once it's 
running, they will rotate around and settle in wherever they're happiest.  
The two-stroke motors that I built/raced when younger had a pin in the piston 
to prevent the rings from rotating because they could snag in a port.  (I 
also remember pouring a little "Bon-Ami" cleanser down the sparkplug hole to 
help seat the chrome rings when they were stubborn about this ... those were 
the days!).
