Hi there, i was wondering- i also have the sport rims but they are on my 2017 xlt, did you have any issues with installing, and trim downs needed? Also the quality, i would like the ksp 1.25" but not as popular on amazon canada, i worry about the strength, as i sometimes haul our travel trailer dry weight 5300lbs

No issues or trimming whatsoever. I am also running OEM Hankooks though.. bigger tire may change that. I can't comment on your 2017. You would need to ensure factory stud lengths are adequate for the thickness of the spacer you're using. The KSP is well-built and hub-centric. So far I haven't had any issues. **I have not been towing anything heavier than a seadoo/side by side.

Has anyone used wheel spacers on their stock wheels with bigger tires to get a little more poke on their trucks? Is this a viable option? Are there any cons to lets say a 1" spacer? I like the stock 20" sport wheels but prefer a little more aggressive stance. Just wondering if anyone has pics to share if they did.
I put 1” Bora spacers on my stock rims with 295/75 Mickey Thompson Baja Bosses on. I Like the stance with the wheel spacers but I had to cut about a 1/4” off the rear studs because the rim would not sit flush with the spacers, the fronts I had no issue

Thats a good looking truck! I really like the grill / light bar up front and the tail lights with the space white

This is the second truck I have seen with this exact paint scheme. Other is a Platinum. Is this a factory custom option? Rarely do I see two toned trucks nowadays, or was this something you did yourself and this guy (up by me) just got lucky and did the same thing?

I just purchased 1.25" BORA spacers. Shipping times look like 3+ weeks but I'll post pics when they are installed. I've got stock 18's and have the truck leveled by dropping the rear (removed blocks and install 1" lowering shackle). I've also upgraded my tires to 33's (General Grabber ATX 275/70/18). The video below is the best one I've seen that shows a back to back comparison b/t stock and 1.25" spacers.

Not sure if you ever go to the bottom of your offcenter rearend but you can hang a weight and string from the wheel well lip to see exactly how far out each tire hangs out.

Not a factory option. There are a few dealerships that offer it as a custom solution, they use 3M or Avery vinyl to achieve the look. I did mine myself and used Halo EFX which is a paint protection product that can be tinted.

Should show a full pic, I'd like to see it. I'll try and grab a pic next time I am downtown. Hate going downtown but the guy works down there I think. I've seen it on the same block a few times.

I swapped out the Bora 1.25" for Bora 0.75" spacers, wheels stuck out a little too far for my taste.


You have to cut the stock studs "around" 1/2" as they would not fit in the the pockets of my stock 20" Sport wheels.

These are the 1.25" and the specs are: Ford_F-150_(2015-2022)__Spacers,_6x135_Bolt_Pattern,_87.1_Hub._ Aluminum, BORA__Black,
Thickness=1.25in (31.75mm) (VehRecNo=5061)

Sure would like to see photos of your stance now with the .75" spacers.
