Gearing set up on a 575 2010

[yetiman575]

Hi, hope someone can help me with this problem.

Currently riding a 2010 575 and have switch to tubeless wheels, running Shimano 9 speed drivetrain. 
            
Having problems setting gearing correct as looks like the chain is very close to the mech hanger.

The wheelset is Mavic Crossmax XL and have fitted the spacer between the cassette and the hub as stated but it looks like its rubbing on the hanger.

Question is if i remove the spacer from the hub would this solve my problem.

Many thanks

If you use it without spacer does the cassette still tighten up?
