Certainly do not look the same to me. They may be the
same weight but they do not appear to be the same compression by the appearance
of the depression in each. I agree if they are the same weight then the
difference in compression may cause it to run a bit rougher than if they were
the same compression but you should be able to fly home with them with no
problem.

identification
I bought this
pair of used rotors to build up a new motor so I can retrieve my RV-6. They
look different in the compression chamber "tub" area, otherwise they
look identical. They both are marked "D" for the weight code. Can
anyone identify these and verify if they are OK to use ? I am thinking if
the compression ratio is different, it may run rough even if
they weigh the same. I remember Ed posting something about a way to
measure the depth, but I cannot find it in my sea of saved
emails.
