Will the 18'' H3 wheels with big tires- work ok in a regular H3 with NO lift?

35s fit with no lift, wheel size doesn't change the tire diameter.

The bigger the wheel, the more problems you will have on your suspension and your A$$. More sidewall=“more cushion for the pushing”

I agree, on an H3 without a lift, I wouldn't put anything more than the Hummer OE 18" wheel. The sidewall of 35" tire (305/70R18) on an 18 inch wheel is the same as a 33" tire (285/75R16) on a 16 inch wheel.
