Says the spacers for the F150 range from 1"-1.5" No mention of 1/4" thickness that I might be interested in also.
When I click the link, the image below is what I see. Clearly says Choose from 5mm to 3/4" thick, though I strongly recommend 1/4" as your max with factory lugs!
Hub-centric and wheel-centric are $150. Further down the page the hub-centric only are $100.

My offset is about +38mm (+44mm stock wheels with 1/4" spacers). If your wheels are 0 offset, that's equivalent to running factory rims with 1.75" spacers.
Higher offset = wheels tucked, lower offset = wheels pushed out.
Factory F-150's are all +44mm except the Raptor's which are +35mm (lower number, so they're spaced out further from truck).

this is my 3rd F150 with tires and wheels, well aware of the math. my point was that those tires only work if you are flush or slightly tucked, and if they are tucked too much you risk rubbing in the uca. Many people do not like tucked, or flush, I'm one of them. Just pointing out to others it's doable depending on offset and what look you are after since people want 35's and aggressive stick out, which is a double edged sword.
Anyone know if a 35X12.5X18 wil rub on a 1mm offset with boss coil overs set at 2.75”. My last truck had 295-70-18 on stock rims with no problems. Trying to decide between the two tires.

I’ve seen guys on here with 35x12.50’s and an offset of around +12 (stock wheels + 1.25” spacers) say they had to spread the crash bars about 3/4”
So if your aftermarket wheels are +1mm, then I’d bet you’re going to have to deal with crash bar rubbing with 35x12.50.

Thats what I was thinking. Do you think the 295-70-18 will rub? If I have to cut the crash bars I would rather have the 35s. If not I’ll just run the 295s.

I wouldn’t want to guess and steer you wrong. Check out the leveling thread and the wheel/tire thread in this section and maybe someone has a similar setup.
Hope this doesn't seem like a dumb question but did you just add the 1/4" spacers to the front wheels or did you do all four wheels with the spacers?
Seems to me that you would want to keep all four wheels the same.

Only the front. When you level the front, it actually draws the wheels in, so my 1/4” spacers put the track width back where it was. But even if you don’t use spacers, the small track difference doesn’t hurt anything
Thanks for the explanation. You raised the front 2 5/8" and used 1/4" spacers to even out the track. I leveled my truck 2" with Bilstein 6112's would 1/4" spacers do the same for me?
