In 2025, installing wheel spacers for a Ford F150 is becoming popular by the day for aesthetic purposes and fitment issues. By pushing the wheels out, spacers allow you to install bigger tires and larger brakes with no rubbing issues. Besides, these F150 tire spacers bring your pickup trucks an aggressive and rugged look.
Generally, you can use 1/4-inch to 2-inch wheel spacers for a Ford F150 with no problems. Here are the pros and cons of each size:
- 1/4-inch: ideal for offering enough clearance to clear larger brake calipers.
- 1-inch: ideal for driving on city streets and occasional off-road adventures.
- 1.5-inch: ideal for a perfect flush look and improved 4×4 performance.
- 2-inch: ideal for fitting a lift kit which gives your F150 a bold, powerful look.
Choosing the Right Wheel Spacers for a 1987-2025 Ford F150
Bolt Pattern: The bolt pattern is an important factor that determines whether these wheel spacers will fit your vehicle hubs. Double-check the vehicle bolt pattern in your owner’s manual before buying a set.
- F150 (2004-2025): PCD=6x135mm, CB=87.1mm, Thread=M14x1.5mm or M14x2.0mm
- F150 (1997-2003): PCD=5x135mm, CB=87.1mm, Thread=M12x1.75mm or M14x2.0mm
- F150 (1987-1996): PCD=5×139.7mm, CB=87.1mm, Thread=1/2″–20 UNF
Correct Offset: Wheel spacers reduce the offset. Example: if your stock wheel offset is +44mm, then a 30mm spacer will make the final offset +14mm.
Who Sells the Best Wheel Spacers for a Ford F150 Near Me?
Safety, precision, strength, and best experience are what sets apart BONOSS from other spacers manufacturers. All BONOSS forged wheel spacers for a Ford F150 are built strictly to operate well in heavy-duty and under any kind of 4×4 events. BONOSS offers several key advantages that make their spacers a top choice.
1. Active Cooling Benefits, Better Braking
BONOSS forged active cooling wheel spacers come with heat dissipation grooves to make brake cooling better. The grooves allow the external cold air to flow continuously inside the spacer when it rotates. The air takes away the heat, actively dissipating heat for the braking system. This boosts the cooling efficiency, reducing brake thermal decay, and improving road safety.
2. Hub-centric Design, Zero Vibration
To provide a perfect fitment, BONOSS make adjustments to the spacers according to the actual vehicle hub design. These BONOSS forged wheel spacers come with better multi-stage hub-centric lips. They are F150-specific hub-centric wheel spacers. This is helpful to keep the spacers and wheels centered and balanced, reducing the chance of high-speed vibration.
