No not without a bunch of lift. Wide tires are harder to clear.

You wouldn't have much lateral traction with the boggers (at least in muddy sidehill situations). Plus they will wear fast, but you already have Swampers

ahahahaha im pretty sure i can clear it, even with the 34`s right now it LOOKS like i could run a 35 easy. also if it DOES turn out to be a big problem, would just adding a wheel spacer help for right now? and if so how much of a spacer should i get?

wheel spacer will actually make tire rub worse.

I've had your style truck with a 3 inch body lift and 33x12.50x15 swampers on 10" wide wheels and they rubbed when i turned all the way. So I am sure them 35 boggers would rub pretty bad.

It sure wouldn't hurt. Put them on and adjust from there.
