Ball seat or cone seat - Vorsteiner wheels ... The tale of the tape
It's the tale of the tape. Adrian at Vorsteiner says "OEM ... I think", another member says he used OEM, a couple of forum sponsors say cone seat they are nearly certain ... No one knows ??? They feel cone seat.
Looks like its cone it has the most even "wear" meaning the cone has more surface area on the wheels vs the right ball seat. You can run both, but for longevity of both the seats and the bolt use the correct bolt "cone bolt left".

I assume you mean, use the "correct" bolt. Not the bolt on the right. Lol
So I called and kept asking to speak to someone technical at VS. Finally. The definitive answer. VS wheels are cut for conical bolts, but are tested and certified for radius Oem bolts too. So, there it is.
Cut for one, tested for both. Use what you choose. The picture above demonstrates your effective contact patch with each certified choice.
