Tilt---might that be "toe-in"? That's where the leading end of the pad/shoe is closer to the rim than the rear/trailing end. Not a lot, a lot of folks use a business card as a feeler gauge to set the distance. I haven't searched, or personally used, your specific calipers----do they not have this adjustment? This would not be where the pad slides into the holder but where the whole shoe assembly screws to the caliper arms.
