remove that POS.. its there to stop people from mounting the stock rears on the front... doesnt apply to aftermarket rims.

Exactly. It won't hurt to remove it at all. There are holes in the front OEM rims and not the rears. This is to prevent some idiot from trying to mount the rears to the front. That's all. Its perfectly ok to remove it.

I had that same dilemma. I just took it off.

its easy as pie to take off as well, I was a bit suprised and didnt have the proper sized socket for it, so I went at it with a pair of vice grip pliers, came off without any fuss.

What size are your rear tires?

You'll need to paint those calipers for the rims to "fit".
