If it has stock flares/not trimmed, then the stock measurements from center hub to bottom of fender are. 17.5" front/17"rear.

Do a little search, there is a "dirty" method and also a "clean" way posted on here that give you stock measurements, might even be a sticky if I remember correctly

Either measure or post a pic, like guy above said, we are pretty good at guessing.
