Default Does anyone have a pic of the INSIDE of an aftermarket ZR-1 style 11" wheel?

The aftermarket ZR-1 A-Mold style 9.5" and 11" wheels viewed head-on look exactly the same to me. I'm trying to figure out if AFS or any of the other repo manufacturers just added 1.5" to the inner rim ( that is, behind the spokes) and some sort of spacer to the inside mounting surface of a 9.5" wheel or if their 11" wheel is entirely cast with both the rim width and the inside mounting surface an intregal part of the wheel. I posted this first last night in C4 General but haven't gotten any info so far. Thanks...

AFs wheels now have what looks to be identical wheels front and rear. The lugs are just deeper where they used to be just like the A Mold GS's and the whole area was deeper. Don't look as good any more. Plus they don't paint the back of the wheel either like they used to. I personally having owned these wheels would not buy the newer version. I would save my money until I found a set of used AMolds or older replicas. I will email you a pic of the outside of a rear wheel at an angle to see the offset are they USED to have.
