Simple question, would 29/10.50 super swampers fit on my 96 4 door 4x4 with stock wheels and ride height?

The 29 inch diameter won't be a problem, that's about what a 235/75/15 is, however you will rub the frame with a 10.5 inch tire, shouldn't be much though, just don't cut it full lock

Don't Wheel spacers cause problems in the long run?

I've had spacers (5/16) on the back wheels for about a year now and no problems I don't know about thicker ones

31's require about 2 inches of lift to avoid any rubbing.

I had a set of 29x1050 swamper thornbirds on 8 inch blanck rockcrawlers on my 96 4 door Jimmy with no lift. I rubbed at full lock and if I hit a hole or bump hard. Ended up cranking the t-bars a little and thought about 2" blocks for the back. Swampers are big and heavy. My 29's were as big as my friends 31x1050 bfg's.
