The balltops are completely interchangable. You can even swap larger or smaller balltops if you like depending on your personal tastes.

Some more info on what you're trying to do would help. Since balltops are interchangeable, you should always get the balltop that matches the buttons (Sanwa to Sanwa, Seimitsu to Seimitsu, etc) unless you're going for them being slightly different, or you really like those clear bubbleballs Seimitsu makes.

i wanted to get some sanwa buttons, but i have a seimitsu stick and wanted to make sure the sanwa balltops fit, so i could get matching button and balltop colors. apparently the pinks are not the same.
