US Mags BLVD, Centers different?

I just got this truck with US mags I believe BLVD's. Just noticed the center caps on the front are taller than the back. Anyone else have these wheels? Are yours like that? Only reason I could think is to clear the bearing cap on the hub, but then why 2 styles?

I got the caps off and the shorter ones won't fit on the front because of the hub length. Kinda bugs me they're different front to back.

I had this issue with Weld Wheels in the 90s. The screw on caps had different heights depending on I don't know what...

Get taller ones for the rear to match.

Yea I think that's my only option. Gonna swap one front to the rear on the other side and see how that looks.
