Rear wheel offset?

Hey all,
I recently bought a '98 fxwg with carriage works hurricane wheels. The rear wheel is straight and is aligned straight, but seems to be offset too far toward the drive (left) side. So much so that the tire rubs the fender lightly. At the fender I have plenty of clearance on right side, but none on the left. Was wondering if anyone knows how to adjust this to get the tire centered in the fender. thanks.

Re: Rear wheel offset?

It could be the rim or it could be the spacers between the rim and swing arm. You have to figure out which one it is and go from there. It also may be the cross section of the tire if it is not a stock size.
