Will SpiderTraxx Make Rub Worse?

I have a 2006 Sport V8, just recently installed Daystar 2.5/1.5 and down the road I'll be getting 265/70/17 BFG A/Ts. I also want to add SpiderTraxx and would be doing that before the tires IF I do it. I know the new tires will rub a bit at full choke and I'm wondering if SpiderTraxx would make any rub that there may worse or better?

Thanks for the response, I love the wider stance but I really want to limit the amount of trimming I have to do. I may hold off on the spacers until after I get the tires.

My Spidertraxx has been sitting in the garage for the last 6 months. I am waiting on my warranty to expire before I put them on along with nu tires :)
 
i have the daystar, and after I put new tires on (BFG) there was some slight rubbing at full lock in reverse. Then I put on 1.5" spacers, and it wasn't drivable. Here is the trimming I had to do, but it was easy

As others have said, it will rub worse, but it's simple to fix. Trim or remove the mudflaps and move the fender liner forward. You may need to trim the corners of the bumper cover down a bit but not likely. With 265/70/17s you won't have to cut out the liner like Techmen though. That seems a little excessive, but a different size too.

Thanks for all the responses guys! I found a deal on some SpiderTraxx I can't pass up so I'll be getting those before the tires and I'll be looking to do a little trimming I guess, no big deal, thanks again!
