TBI are decent enough linear rails and I still wouldn't expect them to wear out like this, also those cutting parameters while at the limit of the spindle shouldn't be anywhere near affecting the linear rails.
If the machine cannot handle 2.2Kw or 3Kw spindle then it certainly won't handle a 6.6Kw HSK63 spindle and just fitting larger rails may not be enough. I would look carefully at the machine to see if can find any other cause for the rails wearing out in that manner because I'm pretty sure it's not just because you have moved the ball-screw position. That large spindle will quickly find any weak areas and you could be back to square one chasing issues.
