Factory they were Chrome lined. Ask, 10 different people you'll get 10 different answers on which is best just, make sure you have the Correct rings for the cylinder surface. Chrome, Nikasil or steel lined cylinders ?

Personally, I would Not get them sleeved, I would get them replated/chromed/Nikasiled.
