Front wheels don't fit the same?

Weird issue I’m having with my front wheel fitment. The car has been through two different sets of coilovers and wheels and about 4 alignments and has had an entire suspension refresh every control arm and bushing is brand new however the front passenger fender sits about a 1/4” more inwards than the driver fender? Hopefully it’s noticeable in the photos attatched at the very least you can see the passenger tire has been absolutely chewed up by the fender/bumper bracket

i would say that it more your body lines are the issue, you can see the rubbing, bowing of the fender and fitment lines

Did you verify et of your front rims? If suspension is ok and alignment correct it’s either rims or panels/fender alignment.
Was the front end hit?
