So I went to have some wheels mounted up to the rear of my GSL-SE and the screws on the mounting surface of the brakes are slightly raised keeping the wheel from mounting flush.

Should these screws sit flush? Is there a detriment to removing them? Or are they solely for holding the rotor in place when nothing else is mounted?

Thanks a bunch

 

Go ahead and remove them. They are used to keep the drum lined up with the holes for the lugnuts. It can make it a little harder to get everything lined up when mounting the wheels, but I haven't had mine for years and never really missed them (I actually have rear discs now).

Thanks you just helped me out a lot
