i just got a set of 35 15 15 super swamper tsl tires and was wondering if anyone had run these tires with a 4 inch lift? or if it would rub?

Since when??? Bigger tires raise CG which is not good for handling and also require lower pressure and they slid easier on slick surfaces too.

ive got almost the same setup on my blazer, 4 inc lift with 35x12.50 tires i wish i would have gone wider.......your gonna need to do some fender trimming and massaging so they don't rub, my 35s used to rub before the fender trimming, so your wider 35s are gonna require more trimming than i did......
