I think those are tabs designed to stop front wheels falling out if the bolts are loosened accidentally (can happen with disc brakes, 'parrently). I don't know if you could use them to mount the wheel lower; can't picture it. If you go to your LBS, they'll probably have some and you could at least give it a go.
