    Default O-Rings for your keyboard

    So I've been experiencing finger pains, was looking for a way to fix this.
    O-Rings look like they might be a decent solution.

    I doubt reducing the key stroke depth will help with your finger pains. Try regular stretches and grip exercises while you're at it :)

    You might also want to look at a different type of switch. Something with more or less travel or maybe a change in the force required. All the various switches have different travels and force required.

    Agreed. Red Switches are some of the lighter ones. MX Speed switches are even better as they have a lower travel time to register the keystroke. But, if you want the ultimate featherlight switch Gateron Clears are the "best" though, for a few weeks of using them, you might run into several missed keystrokes.
