Default 3" lift, Stock Rubi Tires and Wheels, No Spacers

I am planning to do a 3" lift very soon (OME or Teraflex), retaining the stock tires/wheels for now, but would like to avoid using spacers. Is this a good idea? I do quite a bit of highway in the wintertime, and have started wheeling regularly.

My biggest concern is raising the center of gravity without increasing the track.

i ran my 2" lift on stock combo for a few weeks, it wasnt bad, but it did feel a little more stable once i added the spacers. (looked a lot better too)
