Question 2010 FLHTCU wheel spacers

I own a 2010 Ultra Classic. I just had the front wheel bears replaced.i just noticed that the spacers are different. I made sure to place each spacer on the correct side as i took them off. Now i see that there are some rings ingraved into each spacer.

My question is are the spacers tapered on either end? Should the rings engraved be next to the forks or close to the bearings?

The rings engraved are off set to 1 end of the spacer. I have them on the bike. I just do not want to damage anything. so i have not riden the bike yet.



Thanks
