I understand that you're going to be switching the wheels out for traction wheels, but those will only add 2" to your wheel diameter. I can't really tell because of the black background, but it looks as if the framework extends in front of the wheel well and then up at an angle. I didn't do any math, but it intuitively seems that your frame is going to prevent you from climbing the bump by contacting the bump at one of those two points (the bumper zone, or right in front of the wheel).
