Are these mod_security rules safe to disable?

Hi, for the sake of my contact forms usability, I have disabled the following mod_security rules that were causing false positives:

                    SecRuleRemoveById 981242
                    SecRuleRemoveById 981172
                    SecRuleRemoveById 981173
                    SecRuleRemoveById 959070
                    SecRuleRemoveById 200003
                    SecRuleRemoveById 981318
                    SecRuleRemoveById 950901
                    SecRuleRemoveById 981256
                    SecRuleRemoveById 981257
                    SecRuleRemoveById 981231
                    SecRuleRemoveById 981245

Am I creating a security hole? Is there any safer alternative mod_security configuration?

thanks
