Yea I played with the rear nut and that was to center the calliper. The front nut made the calliper's tension hard. So if I screwed it all the way tight the calliper's movement for be tight. So If I pressed on the brake lever the calliper wouldnt open at all. So I left that a little lose.

Basically even if I loosen the rear bolt and center the calliper, once I press on the brake lever they both close at the same time but one the right side just opens more and the left side ends up not opening very much. so much that it looks like its touching the rim.
