Taking the low road...
I was thinking how to shave off some plastic from the wheel flange. And it's
not that big of a deal the roundness of the flange isn't as critical as the
the roundness of the wheel tread.
But then it hit me, using a small jewelers file remove some materal from the
wheel block where the wheels are hitting. see photo at:

BTW I used the "step one" image from Klaas, I hope that's alright.
