    YNOT is correct , you can't "adjust" it out what you do is move the wheel on the shaft... I did mine and its easy peasy... Mine needed to go two splines after a 2 inch lift and was then spot on...

    Put the wheel straight and have a look behind the wheel in the 6 o'clock position and you will see a hole.

    Now, inside the hole is a Phillips head screw but it is sorta vertical so you have to put the screwdriver in pointing towards the roof not straight in the hole.
    Undo the screw and prise off the trim from the bottom and sides as there are two clips at 3 and 9 O'clock.

    There are a few ways to get the wheel off. I suggest leaving the nut on a couple of turns so the wheel doesn't fly off when it lets go. Here is what worked for me.
    Jam your knees behind the wheel at 3 and 9 and push back on the wheel by pushing on the floor with your feet and at the same time give the wheel as solid a belt downwards (yes, downwards) with the palm of your hand at the 12 Oclock position as you can, then do the same at 6 and repeat after a belt or two the wheel will come off the splines maybe 95% of teh time.

    Dolphins are so smart that within a few weeks of captivity, they can train people to stand on the very edge of the pool and throw them fish.
