Changing bin edges on polar histogram

Hi, I am making a polar histogram showing wind directions. I would like each bin to represent each tick rather than representing the directions between to ticks as shown below. How do I change that, so e.g. the bin representing North takes value from [337.5 : 22.5]?

I realize this was posted two years ago, but did you find the answer? I have the same problem. Currenting Googling and have come up with nothing. :/ Thank you!

I suggest you work with bin edges in addition to the number of bins. Below are two examples. On the right, the bins are wind directions, as in your example, with the bins centered in each compass point.
% test data
y = 2*pi * rand(1,100);
tiledlayout('flow');
nexttile;
n = 8; % number of bins
binTheta = 360 / n;
edges = (0:binTheta:360) + binTheta/2;
edges = deg2rad(edges);
polarhistogram(y, edges);
nexttile;
n = 16; % number of bins
labels = { 'E', 'ENE', 'NE', 'NNE', 'N', 'NNW' 'NW', 'WNW', 'W', ...
'WSW', 'SW', 'SSW', 'S', 'SSE', 'SE', 'SES'};
binTheta = 360 / n;
edges = (0:binTheta:360) + binTheta/2;
edges = deg2rad(edges);
polarhistogram(y, edges);
ax = gca;
ax.ThetaTick = 0:binTheta:360;
ax.ThetaTickLabels = labels;
