Is any one running floating front brake discs? Just wondering what offset the bells need to be for E30?

The distance from the face of where the bell mounts to the hub to the face of where the disc mounts to the bell.

Want to get some made up so the disc sits in the standard position so I don't have to change my caliper mounts as well.

My figures won't be any good as I'm running an AP disk and no back dust cover, the disk is about three mm from the tie rod ball joint.
