Those look like slip rings to me. You sandwich them together so you can transfer an electric signal between the stationary portion of the column and the wheel part. Each of those wires would fit their connector on the long piece you see on each ring.

did u got nrg steering wheel? cuz my horn is hard to press,sometimes it getting stuck. im thinking those might be spacers so it will have clearance on the wire for horn,cuz if take the horn out its not hard to press. the connector wires perfectly fits the long piece of that ring tho,its just if u put the hub the wire will be on the way(just imagine it when u install)
