Thanks for the help guys. I bought the Spidertrax 1.25" today.

Be sure to torque and re-torque after the prescribed distance.
I am having trouble with my acceleration as well. It has to do with the torque. Could you send me a video link that describes how it is done? Thanks.

I was referring to how much to tighten your new spacers.
Sorry, I didn't get you the first time. I understand now. Could you elaborate the torque and retorque method?
@Babar Asad I ran Spidertrax spacers on my Tundra, and now on my LC, zero issues, with over 15K miles off-road. They'll come with instructions on install and re-torqueing. It basically just means that after a certain number of miles, you'll want to check and make sure everything is still tight and hasn't become loose.
Ok, wonderful! Thanks for helping me out. Does your LC have any issues with added weight from the bumper during acceleration? (If you have a steel bumper/winch)
I have been running them on my 200 with a OME 2" lift. No issues, I like how they subtly bring my wheels out just a tad. I purchased mine from Slee Offroad.

OK, I have to be honest here, so please forgive me.
Your question is the same as asking, "Does your LC obey the laws of physics? "
It is immutable that larger, heavier tires; added weight over stock, i.e. aftermarket bumpers, winch, etc.; will result in the following: slower acceleration, longer braking distance, worse gas mileage, and most probably (depending on the nature of the modification(s)), decreased maneuverability at speed.
There is no "magic pill" that can cure these resultant ills - they are trade-offs suffered when vehicles are modified from stock configuration.
When it comes to modifications, it boils down to a personal judgement about whether the potential positives, e.g. increased ground clearance, outweigh the inevitable negatives.

A lift does not avoid rubbing.
A lift only delays rubbing until compression happens and brings your tires through the same arc/sweep as before the lift. The bad new there is, compression can happen at speed...and tires rubbing at speed is not a good thing.
Im using 33s right now and I had to take off the fender liner for front tires. I am very close to the ring above the tire. I just bought the wheel spacers. Could you elaborate the compression issue you are talking about? Im not aware of it.
