WHAT IS THIS?

My new to me Spyder (a 2005. not a 2004 as previously reported) has something on the back side of the driver's side rear wheel that I do not recognize. It is shown below. What is it? Thanks in advance for your knowledge!

Just a member.

This is so the dummy owners and tire shop employees  do not rotate the wheels and kill someone.  

 Toyota thinks of everything but unfortunately some remove those pins and do it anyway.  This is a great example of where the customer is not right.

I removed these from mine recently but only because I installed 15x8s in the back and moved the stock 15x7s to the front temporarily 😛

@marsrock7 Can you tell any change in balance?

Can't say that I have noticed any difference. They're relatively small... And near the center of the wheel. Shouldn't be a drastic change at all.
