Here is my take.

 

Go for steel sprockets as they last much longer than aluminium, unless it's for racing. Use OEM if possible, otherwise use only reputable brands. The accuracy in the engineering of the sprocket design will determine the durability of the entire drive train system.

 

Try to change front, rear sprocket, and chain at the same time because if each of these components is at a different level of wear, it will undermine each component's optimum life-span which will incur changing components at closer interval, also mean that you are spending more money in a long term.

 

A new chain won't have a huge effect on the premature wear of a sprocket, a new sprocket put on a worn chain will wear extremely fast.

 

No problem using O-ring, X-ring or W-ring as long the chain size matches with the sprocket sized. EK, and DID are reliable and good brands, and readily available here.

 

When replacing chain, do so in your operations load ie. mount all your boxes, with your typical contents. So that when the mechanic can tension the chain correct based on the actual sag when fully loaded ie rider + barang2.

 

Generally it's safer to have a slightly loose chain than a slightly tight chain.
