I didn't prime mine either & I plasti dipped them last fall. This is the 2nd winter on them & there isn't a mark them yet. I'm definitely getting the 1.5" spacers that he has on his black Raptor. That thing looks awesome spaced out like that.

Will there be any rubbing with a 1.5" spacer. I have 37's and glass with stock wheels. I need more offset because my wheels rub the liners at full turn. I cant afford new wheels at this time.

I dont have any issues with rubbing. I am at mid perch as well. The spacers basically put the stock wheel where a Method with a 0mm offset would sit. I have not had any rubbing issues with my Methods either.

Are you running 37's w/glass fenders and glass liners? Im worried that a 1.5" spacer will rub in the rear at full compression. Methods are a 1.32" offset, so the spacer are a little wider. These 37 general grabbers are pretty wide

You could go with a 1 inch. Might want to do some research on how well spacers hold up offroad. I've heard they can fail but than again I haven't really looked into it.

What is a reliable spacer brand for the 1.5" ones? I've done spacers on many of my vehicles but always invested in quality ones, any ideas for the F150?
