When you look at the back of my bike, the wheel is definitely off centre to the fender by a good ½" to the left. The spacers are right according to the manual,Any suggestions would be appreciated.

There are different methods of aligning the rear wheel but I like to align the rear pulley to the belt, which aligns the wheel. You can put a measuring stick or a straight edge against the pulley, with one end of it running along the belt & see if it's parallel to the belt or if it's a little off, & adjust as needed. Sometimes the spacers can be a little off.
