Disc Caliper Shims

There were no shims installed when I removed the disc calipers on my 1960 
TR3A.  In addition to derusting, painting and installing news seals, I wanted 
to 
address some binding in the left caliper.  Could being off-center result in 
binding?

Now that I'm armed with a selection of shims, what's the proper way to center 
the calipers over the rotor?  I haven't found a procedure yet in my manuals.  
Most say to retain and replace the shims already in place.

Many thanks!
