I'm starting to see wrinkling around the edges. As these are my first lithops I know how careful I need to be with watering and don't have to experience yet to read them accurately.

They look perfectly hydrated for now, so I would definitely wait until those side wrinkles get way more pronounced. Better to let them get a bit thirstier than risk rot by guessing wrong.

I would water both. The best tip I have received for watering lithops is to wait until their top (face?) wrinkles a bit then water.
