first of all, you can't really fit "deep-dish" in the front.

second, i think it's just the angle of the wheel and perspective. since the front wheels are turned, you can see deeper into the wheel making it look "deep-dish". the rear wheels are farther away and pointed straight so the whole wheel looks more flush.

usually when people buy aftermarket wheels they're all the same width like 18x8.5" and they'll all have the same width tire (like 225's or 245's). that's how most packages go if you look around.

but on my 8.5's before i had 245's in the front and 255's in the rear. none of the wheels were deep dish though. that's usually only on 5 series and up...those cars have more width and different offsets to fit much wider wheels/tires.
