Default Quick question! rotor retainer clips.

Installing 33's with black steel wheels this afternoon. (Unique. same as cragar, etc.)
Question-
Should I remove all the brake rotor retainer clips? I know I have seen this topic before, but never a definitive answer.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

NO! If you remove those, you'll render the flux capacitor useless.

Marty! you must retain the abilities of the flux capacitor or the time space continuum will be disrupted!

Yeah, but I kind of thought myself, I think I will take them off. Thanks for the answers!

yeah, thanks again. took them off, no problems. used needle nose pliers to bend them out a bit, then used tin snips to cut them, and they come right off. Easy, Easy.
