The exact contribution of the stellar disk to the overall kinematics of a galaxy remains in most studies a free parameter of the mass models. With the help of chemospectrophotometric evolution models, it is now possible to have a coherent picture of the stellar population of a galaxy including its mass-to-luminosity ratio at every radius spanning a wide range of observable wavelengths. We will focus on discussing the consistency of the mass thus inferred in photometric bands ranging from the FUV to the NIR for individual galaxies and compare this to the maximum-disc hypothesis.
