You use screw bolts into those holes to remove the drum from the parking
brakes if you cannot release the shoes sufficiently to allow it to be
easily pulled off.

Ummmm?

That was a serious answer.

With the unnecessary word "use" accidentally left in from an edit.

Screwing bolts into those threaded holes pushes against the hub to force
the drum/disk off. You should see that the threaded holes do not
continue into the hub. They can only push against it.

They keep the rotor or drum from falling off on the assembly line.
Not a bad idea to keep them in place but they are not at all critical

Actually on SOME drums the hole in the drum WAS threaded - on Japanese
cars thery were M8. On those vehicles they WERE a built-in drum
puller. However, on the picture shown they are NOT threaded, and the
holes are countersunk, and they ARE just a fixture to hold the
rotors/drums on the hub on the assembly line

In total agreement with you here. I've removed more drums and discs than
I care to remember and those threaded holes are a blessing.

I'd prefer to see them blanked off with a dummy cs screw just to keep
the threads clean and clear. The dummy cs screw doesn't need to retain
anything, just prevent those threads gunking up.

Also if the wheel comes off. Not so much with a disc as that will be
constrained by the caliper.

Recently removed the rear drums on a Toyota Yaris - 2 threaded holes, no
screws in them. When I was refitting them, I was careful to ensure that
the threaded holes were adjacent a solid chunk of the axle flange

More important is making sure the adjustment hole is lined up with the
correct hole in the hub. The others will be right then.

Or disk/drums like my 04 Sienna rear brakes, or like yours. I can see
the parking brake cable coming in behind the disk at 4 o'clock in your
pic. If the holes are not threaded, I guess Clare is right.

I've never seen one like that. I have always done it through the hole in
the drum. With a rubber plug.

I saw the countersink but, on my small screen, couldn't tell if the
holes were threaded. Eyesight isn't what it used to be! :-(

The Yaris was the same as this one. https://youtu.be/Y272SV3sHJo

Back in the 70s, the backing plate hole for adjustment was the norm. For
the most part, it was brought about by the inclusion of self adjusters.
If you adjusted them too tight, the self adjuster acted as a ratchet and
prevented you loosening the adjuster back off. That then necessitated
the use of a second tool (long thin screwdriver) to push the self
adjuster plate away whilst backing off the adjuster.

My brother raised the question - could a backed-out screw
interfere / affect the wheel seating flat against the disc ?
... it seems possible - I'll need to check that, next time I have
a wheel off ..
