I have missed to comment that I really like much this filter and is awesome and amazing how it can fix the distortions and make great radial tiling with configurable steps (number of rings and tiles) that you can increase or reduce

Although from what I have seen for correct and right results to avoid distortion you must have at least minimum 2 rings and 4 tiles with fix curvature active and at least a 25 curvature adjust. Well, unless there could be another possible way with other values.

As I said I really like much this filter and is well done, but the only problem I see is when you only have 1 ring as it happens in preset 6 ( and that is better seen with 6 tiles) it seems that it looks like a warp hole or black hole in the center.
I tried to find a possible fix to this and the good thing I have found is to be using 2 rings with adjusted curvature and then cut out the second inner ring to leave this way the first outer ring without distortion. With 2 rings the distorted warp hole image passes to the inner ring as shown below.

And if you uncheck the invert option the inner ring becomes much distorted but there is no problem as you can cut it out and remove it and then duplicate the outer ring and copy and paste it reducing the size of each copy in a graphic software.

Also this may be recommended and a possible way if you do not want to have the inner rings flip inverted as it is shown on Preset 1 and have all the rings with the same orientation.

What is good and great about this filter is that if you do not want to have multiple rings combinations as they are shown, is that you can build and have a perfect radial tiling for one ring with adjustable curvature correction, using two rings, and then make the composition in another graphic software.

And if you do not want to have a radial circular tiling there is also available the also well done and cool alternative to have Polygonal Ring Tile



even with triangle tiling

Also this can have some unusual and good effects on inner rings if wanted can be for example like this, so you can get some benefit of the adjustable curvature to modify the stripes as you may want and need.

This filter can also bend stripes in a circular tiling

and using the same source image as above here you can have a simple stripes flower

Also there is another filter in the series called Swirl Tile. Some of the problem with distortion is that each piece of the ring tile is a pie wedge. So at the very tip of this wedge there is no way to get around distortion, especially at low ring/tile settings. But with the right settings you can still get somewhat recognizable results with low ring/tile settings, for instance:
