I got my new set up today and they look huge compared to my old 20s,
I'm installing a 3" ultimate toytech lift tomorrow with SCrunner12 and Santacruzrunner but am curious if the lift will be enough to prevent rubbing? Would I need to trim? I couldn't find info on this on a 3rd Gen t4r so id thought I get some insight

Doubt it. I scrubbed very little with my 285s and 3" in front. Really all u can do it try it and see. Worst case trim a little haha
 
Ok guys, so the tires wont fit without spacers, should I be getting hub or lug centric spacers for my ultra gauntlets?

A larger tire is going in the same spots on a stock height and a suspension lifted vehicle. The stock height will just rub more often. If you have a good suspension lift, it should flex to the bumpstops. During this flex, the tires will cycle thru where the stock ride is. A body lift will move the body up and away from some of those rub spots. Also, extended bumpstops can reduce some rubbing (I don't believe in reducing the suspension travel to reduce rubbing).

As far as spacers. Are those wheels hub centric? If so, go HC spacers. If not, HC spacers aren't needed. Hub centric spacers will still center on the axle hubs and reduce some pressure on the factory lug bolts. The wheels will then be centered on the spacer lugs.

My guess, You are going to do some pounding and cutting at the pinchweld.
Get them on befor the lift and they will show you where to pound.
