I put on my disc wheel last night to get ready for a race and I found it very hard to align my brake pads on the wheel without either rubbing the disc a little or the tire a little. If the disc gets rubbed, will that hurt the performance of the disc either through the rub or through wear. Is it better if it touches the tire a little bit? Is there a way around this problem? Thanks.

Yes, a disc wheel not a disc break. I did as you said, however, the pad runs just a slight bit over onto the disc or if I move it over, a slight bit over onto the tire. I'm just wondering which one would be more harmful to rub or if there is a way to shave some brake pad away or something.
