the brakes in the back are smaller and the wheels in teh back are wider. You are refering to the concavity of the wheel. since the the front brakes are larger and require more clearance for the wheel, there is less room for a large lip, or deep concavity. Same reason why the rear lip on wheels with large lips is always bigger than the front.
