    Its two screws and last time i took the wheels off they had vibrated loose (discs were warped) and the screws just dropped out.
    if you lose them I wouldn’t worry about them but if you still have them I don't see any advantage of removing them.

    to add - the 2 screws are installed and removed by a impact hammer so they arent exactly there for a pretty look - methinks they do something ! I had steelies on , and one screw managed to free itself and thus the wheel slowly became a horrible wobble. Probably ripped the bearing too ( wich woudl explain a new funky noise lol)
    So as Uncle robert said "leave is as (Honda)God intended." Stock !

    no intention to run without the screws, but i have a pair of rotors with screw holes that don't line up with my original holes on the hub. so wanting to know if it's ok to run without them.

    but seeing that it's held in my the 4 bolts and the wheel shouldn't it be tight? and not wobble?

    if i was you id drill some hole in your new rotor to accomodate the screws.

    i mean how had is it to screw 2 holes and counter sink em?

    id rather that than run the risk(however small) or doin any harm to your car and/or your new rotors.

    and also what brand of rotors dont come with enough holes? dbas come with 4 when only 2 r needed
    oh wrd!

    i want the holes to be accurate.. dont want to run the risk and miss..

    i have brembo rotors, that where drilled for 4x114.3 (bb1) but they came drilled with 4x100 from japan. don't know why they didn't drill holes for the screws, maybe don't need it.

    would it be safe to say that because you have to undo the screws with an impact wrench, you should also do them back up with aan impact wrench? Just wanna make sure as i gonna do this on the weekend.. and dont wanna screw it up lol

    yeh do it up with the impact hammer (they needa be tight) and if ou try doing it by hand you risk defacing the screw
