Coincidentally, my buddy just sent me a message asking whether it's normal that his Bontrager rear wheel measures 133.54mm OLD. 1.5mm isn't a lot but could make things a little more difficult to install. What does your frame and hub measure?

Almost like the fork is flexing too much.
There are a lot of times that I can't get a disc brake to not rub. It's likely either a fork flex issue as you mentioned or the brake caliper mounts are not faced correctly.
