ya man it wont hurt to try and i bet it fixes it. just pull it off with pliers and bolt the wheels back on. if it dont work you didnt lose anything its a assembly line piece to make sure the drums dont fall off down the line

Guys, many thanks for all comment. Im glad yall like my wheels. Yes I will just ahead take it to shop to re-balance. Since at Walmart guys who work on tires. The guy took test drive on mine. He say its need balance. BEcause there is too many balance on it. My cousin will take my truck to other shop let them to do re-balance for me tomorrow. I will try to have time to do resurface on my rotors tomorrow afternoon. BUT do I need get brake pads? Since I look at my brake pad. They pretty thick. Still good. Able to reuse after resurface the rotors?

If those clips are still on there try that first, good chance that will solve it.

Truck is looking good!

If you look at the hub of your stock wheels where the studs come through on the back side they are relief cut around the back of the hole. The aftermarket wheels aren't, thus why they're affected. +1 as well about having your rotors resurfaced, that should cure your problem. And don't knock the guy for his grammar because he's deaf. Hell half of all college grads can't put together their thoughts that well. The truck looks good though man. Get that drop on and post up some pics. Those wheels look sick with the color of your truck.

btw, i've seen this happen with wheels that aren't hubcentric. when ever you pull the wheels to take out the little clips, make sure you tighten the lugs in a criss-cross pattern and use a torque wrench.
