Default Spacers?

Picking up a 2017 Lariat SE next week and want to order some spacers. Any idea what size I should get for a flush look w/ the fender?

I bought 1.25" for factory 20s and it worked out just about perfect.

New to the F150 truck world.
Thought you only used spacers when you couldn't get the correct off-set & back spacing.
Also require longer studs, so you maintain the correct % of thread engagement..

These have their own studs on them. Bolt the spacer to the hub, bolt the wheel to the spacer, at least when using over an inch thick spacers.

Just a heads up on spacers 1.5" or less you will need to trim the excessive studs flush on the spacer for the factory spare (steel wheel) to bolt flush with the hub. Or you can remove the spacer to run the spare.
