I have a very similar setup, but running the boss coilovers with a little more than 2.5" inch lift. My wheels are a 20x9 with a +12 offset. Before I put the Ford OEM mud flaps on I didn't have any rubbing, now with them on I rub at full tilt in reverse and sometimes at full tilt going forward. I am still trying to decide if it is too much of an issue for me if I can do some trimming. So far I have used it like this for 500 miles and it isn't terrible. Here is a picture of it before mudflaps.
I'm fairly confident that +12 offset is roughly the same as stock wheels + 1.5" spacer.
Are you able to snap a few pictures showing it rubbing? And maybe a picture or two, from the side showing the clearance between the flap and the tire when the wheels are straight?

Stock wheels are +44, 1.5" spacers are roughly 38mm, leaving you with a +6 offset.
I'm no expert and I don't have mudflaps, but I'm guessing that if I were to put them on mine with my current set up, at full lock in reverse and uneven ground they would catch the mudflaps. Maybe just rub, maybe rip them off. I don't know for sure - and I have 275/65/20 KO2s, 1.5" spacers, stock wheels, 2.5" up front and 2.25" in the rear.

Here are some pictures for reference. I'll reiterate that I have 275/65/20, so the 285/65/20 would be about a half inch wider and half inch larger in diameter than mine.
First image is the driver's side tire turned to the counter clockwise (left). It's not turned the whole way because I didn't have anybody to hold it in that position.
Second image is the passenger side tire turned clockwise (right) with my finger as a reference for the space between the tire and rear crash bar.
Third image is the same only a better reference- the tire is touching my finger on one side and the crash bar is touching my finger on the other side - maybe 1/2" clearance.
Last image is the passenger side tire turned about halfway giving a reference of about how much space there is between the tire and wheel well.
*Edit: Sorry for the rotated pictures. Don't know how to turn them the right way.

Here is a picture of mine that I just took. It will sometimes rub lightly in reverse, but if the suspension is binding it all it will definitely rub more. Second is drivers side third is the passenger side.
