A strip cut from an old inner tube makes a nice non-marring shim. I would think if it's not thick enough you could make a longer strip and wrap it around once, but I wouldn't wrap it more than once since it could make the rack unstable.
Another possibility would be the shims they make to put a narrow seatpost into a larger diameter seat tube. Those would be guaranteed to be the right size. But I think those are metal and might scratch your seatpost.
