It is going to be different. You drove the F150 for 8 years and change something. You will notice any slight change including waxing the exterior. Just my opinion.

that would be neat and maybe worth a shot. It’ll be awhile before I do tires, and I am considering the stage 1 steering kit from 74weld and OME shocks (+0.75” over Sasquatch) when I do tires. Saving the dollars up in advance!
in a perfect world it still always comes down to the cost lol
Any pictures from straight on, front or back?I bought Mishimoto’s “Borne off road” 30mm spacers for my non-sas badlands. With stock wheels, it equates to roughly the same offset as Sas wheels. I also installed 315/70r17 KO2’s and have non-sas flares. I think the poke looks perfect and have 0 rub. Nice quality spacers too.

This looks perfect. I like my original non-sas wheels and just want to bump them out slightly. How have they been? Any issues? If not, I'm sold.I just put Borne 1.4” spacers on the factory OEM non-sas rims w/original KO2’s (44k miles w/some tread left). 315/70R17’s next, I believe.
I'm old school...spacers are a janky way to change your offset and is definitely mall crawler territory in that its form over function.
Nothing like putting extra force on your bearings, just to look cool...lol

A 1" spacer on a non-Sas wheel puts the same load on the bearings as a Sas wheel alone. It's only janky if you use non-hubcentric spacers or wide spacers without their own studs. I went this route, not to look cool, but because I intend to put 35's on Badland wheels.

I agree with your offset statement...no difference, but sorry, just as Janky, you would NEVER see spacers used for anything other than show...

$50 for 1/4” spacers to fit my 37s vs well over $1000 for new wheels. I'm not going to spend that kind of money for 6mm (although I was absolutely willing to take a cutoff wheel to my crash bars). Show me on the doll where the wheel spacer touched you

Complete BS
Bora (made in USA and high quality) are widely used on large tractors and commercial Ag equipment.
My Kubota tractors always run spacers.
My ‘24 Braptor with 37x13.5” tires runs 3/8” Bora hub centric spacers in order to keep the front tires off the UCAs.
There nothing wrong with high quality hub centric spacers with a reasonable thickness...
