Man I am missing my favorite roll of duct tape to fix my front end. I had to use zip ties, and you know, its not the same thing.
Cool.

So the bracket will lower or raise the stock brake caliper so it is better suited for the 4.5 in rim and new rotor?

Also, is this a suitable brake rotor?

Didn't even notice that!
I just got the rim in today. It looks real good. Just need to order the bracket, rotor, and wheel.

Now would a Bridgestone BT45 Battlax fit the rim and be okay on the GS? It measures 150/70-17 and it is also rated V instead of H.

Thanks,
