The inner ring in the dust cap should be about half way in the dust cap so there is about .5 to 1 mm play when fully installed.  And not making contact with the bearing case. In my case it is pushing on the bearing case and it was not able to turn freely. Befor i discovered this problem i had already intalled both set's .  So i bought a new set now from SKF.  Compared the parts and found the failure in the dust cap.  so i changed both Left and right wheel bearing set's for new ones from SKF See photo's below to make it more easier to understand  Also have a look in the playlist on my youtube channel or on my website
