DIY toe alignment question

Recently, I replaced all the bushings, control arms, tie rods, etc on my E46 and while waiting for the backordered Vorshlag camber plates, I wanted to get my toe alignment in the ball park.

Visually, it looks close and it drives straight, but using two pieces of angle iron on the outside of the wheels and tape measures, it was over an inch toed in.

Is it possible to get it in the ballpark using this method? Can it visually look close and be so far off with a tape?

The sideways pictures don’t help, I’ve looked every which way and it looks straight

Because the car is low, I can only set it as seen to clear underneath with the tapes.
