I'm pretty certain it's come up in this thread, but I am having difficulty searching for the answer. So, i'll ask it again:

Is it safe to remove the brake centering bolt on our (non-P models) rotors? I just bought 3mm spacers and found they do not fit because this little bolt is in the way.

Here's a link to a photo for reference:

Yes, safe to remove. That's only there to hold the rotor in place during assembly.

I finally made some time to take decent shots of my new wheels. These are my very first forged monoblock wheels i've ever owned, and while I was disappointed to learn that they actually weighed more than the previous rotary forged wheels they replaced (22.2 versus 21.6 lbs) when I got them in, I am still quite happy with them. I hope that these are the last wheels i'll buy for my car.

The new wheels are MRR NES FG-01 19x9 et35 in crystal gray finish (which I also did not expect to turn out as dark as they are), purchased from @Josh@GYW . The previous wheels they replaced were Forgestar CF5V 19x8.5 et32 in double dark tint.

Even though these new wheels are half an inch wider at 19x9, I decided to keep my tires that I had with my previous wheels, which are Continental PureContact LS 235/40/19 because I was pleased with how quiet they were as well as the range that I got with them...even though i'm sacrificing lip protection by keeping these size tires on 19x9 wheels.

Here's a before (bottom) and after (top photo, ride height raised by a quarter of an inch) shot of my new and previous wheels:

Here are different angles to show the fitment of the wheels and offset:
