It should be the other way around and you can tell by the concave look on the front and non concave look in the rear (shoudl be concave in rear and straight in front)
Let me know if I am right.

Thanks all for pointing it out! I noticed it this friday before my autocross meet! I WAS LIKE WTF!!!! So I had to go yell at Discount tire for mounting them wrong... they put the 9.5 tire on the 8.5 rim.. and likewise on the other... so i got them all switched around!
but now im getting a squeak from the left side of the car when i turn the wheel slightly left... but if i press the brake it goes away... im guessing its just the brake pad maybe it has some dust inside and ill take it off and blow it off with compressor... either way im gonna stop at the dealer cuz i blew the check engine light when i changed the test pipes and I need the code reset...
btw the front 8.5 rims are supposed to be more straight then the bent in rear 9.5 correct?!
I would complain too if this was someone else not as famous as Kid Rock for smoking in their new Ford GT... but the guys got the cash to probably buy like 10 of them...

the rear 9.5's should bend inward (concave) and the front 8.5 should look normal and straight. I hope you get that fixed soon, I cant believe you didnt notice after all this time.
