thats a wheel rim not a hub, a hup is the bit on the car a wheel bolts too. just take the pins out, 12mm spanner or mole grips if they are too tight. they are only there to help you fit a wheel, loads of people remove them
they have 2 uses
1 to help align the wheels onto the car so that you can quickly put a wheel on and off
2 help keep the Disc bolted to the hub
When you bolt your wheels onto the hub it clamps the disc anyway, so there is no difference really to what the little pegs do
Just makes things a little easier thats all
