Default Wheel Face offset question.

Might be kinda an odd question but I have one concerning the Face of the Z06 Wheels Front vrs Back. I realize the backside of the Wheels control the offset and the width but is the Face side of the wheels the same ? In other words does does a rear have a deeper dish than a front, looking at the face ? I'm used to C4 wheels, a 9.5 front and a 11" rear all look the same from the front side.

Based on the specs listed in that thread and doing some quick math rears have a roughly .4" deeper "face". They're visually deeper as well.
