Default 06 Gs 300 lo disk or high disk front

I am working out new wheel specs and on my car since I have smaller calipers than the 350 I wanted to know if anyone has seen or done a low disk or super low disk on the front and on the rear the hub sticks out further than the caliper so I should be able to run super low disk in the rear. Right???

what are the choices? for sure you don't need high disc. do they have standard disc (all companies call it differently). i would be careful on super low though

for rear, super low shouldn't be problem. i think i had super low before (and low now)

Thanks Henry, Im not sure exactly what they offer to be honest, Im trying to get a fat lip on the front and there isn t much caliper to clear, the caliper only sticks past the hub 25mm/ about 1 inch my wheels now clear by 2.5-3 inches with the 20mm spacer. Im thinking I can get close to 4 inch on the front and close to a 5 on the rear.

Then you will be hitting your fenders besides putting more stress on your studs.

^^^what??? I don t think your understanding what Im talking about, I want to reduce the back pad of the wheel on my next set. This will bring the backside of my faces tighter to my caliper all while gaining lip and still keeping an offset that works for me. Hi disk lo disk is pretty much how thick the face of the wheel is to get around brake components I don t have bbk so I should be able to run a lower disk in the front to do this.
