You probably will have to remove the valance under your bumper unless you get a little lift. Most of your rubbing is going to be on the rear of your tires turning or flexing. Mine did just turning into slightly sloped driveways. Even with shackles and a 3 inch lift I had rubbing. Fixed that one with a 2 inch body lift.

so more than likely i have to add another inch or so bodylift, what about just slapping a 1 1/4" spidertrax spacers in addition to the 2.5" lift? will that resolve the issue? perhaps goin' down in tire width size..
