Another Wheel Question re: "disk"
When you look for offsets some manufacturers list offsets with low, standard, medium, or high disk. Does it make a difference if the offset you want is listed under, say standard versus medium or high?

Disk has to do with how much lip is on the rim. If theres a +50 in Low Disk and a +50 in Standard, they are both +50 offset, just that Standard will have more lip. (not 100% sure about this information 
)

Thanks guys. So that means that the center section (meaning the part that comes in contact with the hub) will vary in thickness? Does that mean the standard with more lip will be a slightly weaker wheel?
