? for those with 17x9 AFS Mach wheels
Does anyone have the 17x9 AFS Mach wheel that can get me a pic of it in comparison to the stock 8" wheel?
What I am wondering is is the extra inch on the front lip or is it on the backside of the rim. I am considering getting the 10.5 rears and keeping the stock 8's on the front however if the 17x9's have a deeper lip than the stock 8's do I may go that way. I tried looking through the pics I could find here but it is hard to tell, most of what I see from a head on and down the side shot you can't tell the difference between the front 8" wide wheels and the rear 9" wheels. |

The lip is wider but I'm not sure how much.

when i bought mine i compared them with the OEM wheels and found the backspacing was the same(+/- 1/8")
the outside polished lip was also the same (+/- 1/8"), BUT the spoke section was thicker, this is where they made up the extra 1"

Ive had the 9" and the lip is no wider however I like the look of the 9" over the factory because the extra inch makes the wheel stuck out further and makes the car appear lower. I current have the 10.5 dd with stockers up front and with probably get the 9" at some point just because they stick out more, but the lip will be the same
