LOL! Just done it with marmite and jam. Jam wins whichever order you do it!

The wheel rubbing issue is mentioned in the instructions supplied with the OB KIT. They do mention use of a spacer and there is no reference to grinding. I had exactly the same problem and a 2mm spacer solved the issue. It would have been nicer if the spacers were part of the kit though.
