The downhole tool also includes an expander ring having an asymmetric wall thickness and rotatable around the recessed ring guide between a reduced tool profile orientation and an expanded tool profile orientation. The downhole tool also includes an actuator configured to rotate the expander ring between the reduced profile orientation and the expanded profile orientation.
