The drive plate needs a flat surface to mate to.
If the flywheel has high spots, at best you will probably get judder as the drive plate releases, at worst it can cause slipping. It is a good idea to check flywheel thickness first, as a flywheel that has been over skimmed, will change the fulcrum angle of the clutch arm.
Simple answer: if it needs skimming, then yes it is highly recomended.

Paulo, your flywheel is babys arse smooth, yes?
