I saw these rims on CL and in the picture it sure looks like the outer edge is larger than the inside but in my head I know they have to be the same.

It's possible that the front edge is larger than the back edge. The wheels on my dad's truck were like that but not such an obvious amount like the ones in that pic. When you're installing tires on the wheels you put the wheel on the tire machine face down.
LG G6 has dual cameras and makes for some strange photos due to a skewed perspective.
Also if anyone comes across a set of 15x12 Auto Drags - hit me up!

I am sure there might be some wheels out there that are designed that way but these are Centerline Auto Drags 15 x 9 rims and that is not the case here.
Honestly I have watched many of my tires being installed using different machines and it is always mounted face up.

I see what you're saying now. The wheels in the pic aren't supposed to have an enormous lip on the front side.
Honestly, I didn't know that they made wheels with a bigger lip on the front side till I tried to put tires on that set on dad's truck. I was trying to put tires on the wheels at work and I put them on the tire machine like normal, front side up. It wouldn't work and it took me a couple minutes to realize that I needed to flip them over. Lol.
