s10 swap rear wheel/bed alignment issue

I have all of my sheet metal perfectly aligned with the front fenders, cab, running boards, all the way back to the bed being in alignment with the rest. One thing I noticed is the rear wheels seem further back than some of the pictures I've seen online. I use the two little bolts heads on the lip of the fender as a reference. The only thing I can think of is that the axle on this truck isn't in the stock location?

Could someone tell me if I'm off my rocker or is this normal? I'm hoping its just the wheel size throwing me off otherwise it looks like the axle has to move forward about 6"
