Am I right in thinking these cones I bought from minispares are not a matching set?

I ordered red spot cones but not sure if they are wrong, thanks

They look like the standard ones to me. If they aren't, I've got red dot on mine! ?

Red spot cones are a very different shape to standard ones.

I was confused because of the different coloured spots, and the fact you can get red dot, yellow dot etc, the colour of the dots on my cones coincidentally

Thanks for the replies

probably the batch markings so they know that they send you pairs of the same rubber/etc

They're standard cones, the coloured dots are just so we can keep track of batch dates, no problem mixing them up.

Thanks mate. Because they had yellow and red dots we weren't sure if they were red spot and yellow spot cones mixed up

Those colour dots you can ignore. Those are for tracking batch lots.
