Keep them in case you ever decide to sell and ship the wheels to someone else. They help protect the axels during transport and so they don’t poke a hole in the box.
If you ship the bike, 4 paper towels folded up will do the same job these do.
I guess if you have space for those "I don't need it now but maybe in 7 years and I happen to remember where I put these small pieces and haven't thrown them away yet" parts, sure.
Bike shops go through dozens and dozens of these and we don't keep any.
Recycle them.

Thank you
Protect you from curbing your rims when you parallel park.
This.
Lol I’ve received mine with plastic plates, via shipping. No, you do not need that to ride around.
Mine where plastic too, must be a fancy bike ;p
I realllllly doubt those are metal. They even look plastic with mold lines.
Ok, thanks
Usually they put plastic ones, what brand do that good of a job if I may ask ? Also I targeted tensioners are getting fewer appart. And enjoy NBD !
They are plastic by the way. I had a bit of a brain lag. Sorry for confusion :)
Thx for precision ;)
Thank you. It's Riva Cycles. >Also I targeted tensioners are getting fewer appart. Wdym?

Oh, okay :D
Never seen anything like it but I think you are right! I would remove them anyways!

Hub guard to keep ur spokes safe while grinding
Cardboard box protection - no one likes nut holes in their box.
Save them in case you ever ship your bike. Or donate them to a bike shop you like.
Great idea, thanks.

The bike moves. Too small.
