Basically, as it states, I'm looking for pics and opinions of running 35s with no lift. I love the stuffed look and I'm wondering how much trouble it is with that setup

Jeep looking good how about some more specs on it....gears, spacers, backspace on wheels, width?

Haven't done this yet, but once the Duratracs die, it'll be next on my list.
As for the rubbing, check out Planman's posts. Short version: Flat (or trimmed) flares, proper backspacing (or spacers) on your wheels, trim (or get rid of) the front airdam, and then extend your bump stops. Going from 32" to 35" tires, you'll need a 1.5" extension. Assuming that the 35"s you get are actually 35", that is. Get all that done, and you should be free of any rubbing with no lift.

Duratracs 315/70/17
Blackrocks 909 17x8 with 4.5" backspacing
I would go with a slightly wider rim these tires feel squiggly with these rims, not scary but a very subtle movement. You will have to remove or trim the air dam. I've only driven it on the road like this.
