So I definitely know how to 'adjust'/recenter them, but it doesn't seem like it 'takes' that well. Maybe I'm just not doing it perfectly.
Occasionally when I would get a flat my discs would 'brush' lightly, which supposedly does not slow you down, but is annoying
Adjusting disc brakes is very simple and fast, first you spin the wheel and check if the disc is straight or bent, if its bent, bend it back so it's straight
The other thing you do to adjust it is loosen the caliper and adjust it, if you don't know where it should be, just keep moving it around until you no longer hear brushing, then just tighten it

If you never pull the wheels off, it shouldn't be a problem, but then again, it's very easy to do anyway
