Is this tile bowing okay? Will it cause issues with the Glass?

I have large format tiles that I want to install vertically for my shower. The tiles are 2' x 4'. The gap in the picture is just under 3/16" on both sides, so divide by two(2 tiles back to back) for the overall bow. 1.5/16" aka 3/32". All tiles are bowed like this.


I really want my tile to stand vertically, but I am concerned about how the glass walls will meet up with the tile. Should I be? Is this normal?


I haven't picked the glass yet. I have no idea how the glass gets mounted.


The picture shows the 4' length.

I should also mention that I am not staggering the tile, so tile clips won't fix the bow.

They will help flatten the tiles with eachother. Those should be fine to install as long as you are using clips.
