if you mean the shims around the buttons then yes, they are there for a reason, if they disintegrate like mine did it makes your disc think its a tamborine!

aah i don't even remember them being there, i would have thought without them the disc wouldn't sit evenly between the calipers then the inner pad would bind on the disc, causing overheating and warped discs, gotta be worth replacing them.
