What is this thing on the front rotor for?
I have this thing sticking out on the front rotor. It won't let my new after market rim go on. Can I remove it? What is it for?

I think they are for preventing the rotor to move, but I could be wrong
I removed them in order to install my Volk GT-C's and there has been no problem at all...
Take them off... no biggie

That is why you can't rotate the tires from front to back (different tire sizes). You also can't rotate them right to left since they are directional tires (i.e. they are only suppose to rotate one way and not the other)
You can of course, remove the tire from the wheel, turn it around and put it back on and THEN rotate it right to left.

I know the tires are different sizes.
