technically it would groove your tires...
sorry to burst your bubble bro. cherokees flex like crazy and your freshly cut fenders will cut right into those 34's and destroy your fenders!!!!
just be patient and save up for a lift.....there are some decent ones out there for cheap

What you did by jumping into that thread with your question is known as thread hi-jacking. In the future, start your own threads, that way you get the traffic, and you wont tick off the OP of the original thread. I moved your thread to the tech section, so you could get your question readily answered. As you have already heard, 34s are not going to work on a stock XJ, sorry!!

I've heard of people stuffing 33s on a stock suspension with major trimming, but I don't know about 34s.
Maybe try to trade those 34s for some 33s or even 32s. I also don't think it'd be a good idea for to be on such a big tire and possibly lfited after you just recently got your license. A lifted cherokee handles a lot differently than a stock one, which can be dangerous. You should keep the 34s in your garage, keep driving your cherokee until you become a better driver (for your's and the drivers around you safety) and can save some cash to buy the proper lift kit.
Just my $0.02. Welcome to the forum, post up some pictures of your rig.
