Default Gotta ask about this...

Hey guys,

New around here and interested in rims for my RX300. Gotta dumb question.

I have seen references to lo disk, mid disk, and high disk in reference to offset. I know what offset is but what does the lo, mid, hi disk refer to?

welcome,...high disk gives more room for big caliper breaks..low disk usually gives more Lip depth(multi-piece rims) on the same offset figure compare to mid and high disk

Yes, but how does this relate to offset? IOW, a rim with a 35mm offset low disk differs from a rim with a 35mm offset hi disk differs how?
