Default 2015 F150 Wheel Spacer question

I have a 2015 F150 2.7EB (Blue Flame Metallic) with the Sport Package, and so has the 18" 6 spoke wheel. I am swapping the tires (stock size) for Duratracs. I am toying with new wheels, in 18" but have not found any I really like. Now the stock wheels are not bad at all, they are just way to tucked under for me. So, wheel spacers might be the ticket in the short term??

Question: Would 1.25" spacers fit the 18" sport wheel without having to trim the lugs? I dont want the wheels to be over flush with the fenders. I live in CO and the snow makes a serious mess when the wheels are slightly past the fender.

Thanks for the feedback

Check the back of the wheels (you'd have to take them off or look it uo) and see if there is a recessed area on the back of the wheel next to the lugs. If it's recessed there should be enough room to fit 1.25". I got 1.5" and had at least another half inch of room so you should be fine.

I imagine your wheels have the recessed area since all the other factory wheels seem to have them. Don't be surprised if 1.25" fails to meet the width you desire. You can look at a few build threads on here to see some of the guys running spacers to get an idea of where they'll sit.

I ran 1.5" spacers on stock wheels with 275/65/20. Definitely less tucked and achieved the look I wanted. I do think if I would have gone with 285/65/20 tires it would be look slightly better. Overall I'm happy though.

Good luck.
