Are they there for noise suppression? Just wondering if I have to install, or do most guys just pitch them? Thanks.

I would wire brush the grooves clean & bend the 2 L tabs on the one pad so it fits real tight on the caliper and the other pad has some lateral side play (file the ends if needed) so its loose live every 24 hour block of time like it's your last day on earth
