swap thoes two spacers around put the bigger one on the other side and same with the smaller one it should shift the wheel over more, so then it should rub but from the first 2 pics the space on one side seems huge compared to the other side. hope that helps

ok what to do is loosen the caliper from the forks but dont remove it just loosen so it can be moved a little.

Then squeeze the front brake in real hard and at the same time retighten the caliper.

This will realight the caliper to the correct position!

I had the same problem when i first put on my front wheel.. You probably put the bushers around the wrong way.. take them off and swap them around.
