Looks like my rocky relationship with this mechanic may be headed for a nasty final breakup, long story short, any reason I can't tow a car with the brake discs removed? I assume pressing the brakes would cause the pistons to pop out for one thing?
Edit: Yep we're done.
Only issue I've seen is that the discs sometimes act as a spacer of sort so the wheels won't bolt up completely, but for a short trip at low speeds you should be able to make it.
Probably, and correct. Towing will be fine as long as there's decent clearance around the tire since it'll be inset about 1/4" further without the disk. Also, there "may" also be an issue with the lug nuts bottoming out on the wheel hub before they tighten the wheel - be sure to check.
I have spacers I can use to keep the wheel a little further out than it would have been if the disc were installed.
Are we talking about flat towing or towing on a trailer?
Towing on a flatbed truck.
A flatbed truck can tow it with no wheels at all. 
Non issue.
Figured so, just wanted to make sure. I might not have thought of the spacing issue if it wasn't mentioned.
Hey if I trap a piece of metal about as thick as the rear discs between the rear pads, that means I could use the front brakes, right? Moving a car with some brakes is way easier than moving a car with no brakes.
In reply to GameboyRMH:
Unless, of course, the piece of metal falls out when you let off the brakes.
Yeah I thought about that...I'll string/tape it up so it doesn't fall out.
Even a pieces of wood duct taped in place would work.
That's the plan, just called my dad to see if he can get any from the factory
