Actually, the woofer arrived with no gasket at all on the bottom part of the flange. The top has a neoprene (maybe) gasket which is possibly be glued on. I don't want to mess with it. A thick paper or fiber gasket was taped to the top of that, for use on the bottom. So I have a clean surface on the bottom flange.
Of course, you're right. So sorry for the confusion! I was thinking of the pressed framed drivers that have the gasket glued on. Those are rather thin, and don't make much sense removing. But the cast drivers don't have them. You're talking about that extra gasket, loose in the box, the one that comes with the woofer.
The included unattached paper gaskets that come with the woofers are good. They double as spacers for installations where the woofer is mounted to a compression plate. But if you want a spacer and don't need the extra thickness, try making a gasket with PVC material. Like this:
