I bought the chain ring from Wabi as it matches the old one. It is actually pretty darn close to concentric.

Not sure if anyone else has tried this and it just dawned on me to give it a try:
I got it to run even more evenly by loosening the chain ring bolts to a little tighter than finger tight and rotated the crank to find the high/low spots then softly bumped the chain ring with a rubber mallet, then tightened the chain ring bolts. It helped. A few trial and errors and it's running pretty evenly.
