They do have tabs, and personally I'd suggest the thinner one so you don't have issues trying to squish the plate + a new pad into there (or have to try to shave down your pads),

A lot of the squeal really isn't from the mating surface, even though it sounds like it. They did objectively reduce heat back when I first tried them (sport calipers + CT pads). I use them now on the front of my Stillen kit, too (different shape).
