The wheels looks flush!

Maybe there is slightly more stretch on the front tires.
Tire sizes and wheel widths?

Look very slightly out to me, not much mind you but you sound like a perfectionist... Maybe 5-8mm up front. I think the fact the wheel arch gap front to rear is different also effects the look.

Have you tried putting a spirit level vertically against the wheels and measured distance to the wheel arch?

Are those front tires really 265/35/20 on 9" wide? Looks narrower.

Yes they are. Pzeros. Every tire brand has different tapered looks.

Wow...265 on a 9" rim still has somewhat of a stretched look.

More pics
Forgive the pics. iPhone lens distortion can bend the pics and take away from the real looks. And shape. Adds more gap also. Lol
