That's weird to me, my top rings were like .01 before filing.

Mine are. 017 top And .021 second ring.

Yep, even my buddies 2.2L 90mm bore build the rings were perfectly within specs. On my built motor they were perfectly within the turbo specs. I think it really has to do with how your p2w clearances are at least thats what ive seen.

Ive yet to have to file a set of rings. I usually just give the machine shop the pistons and the spec sheet from CP for p2w clearances and havent had an issue.

in my case I would agree with ashton... after I sorted my P2W clearance for my build, my Wiseco pistons were dead on with the Gaps... aftermarket guys got it good

So do you guys only gap the top two or for all the rings?

The top two are the important ones.
