難しい wouldn`t be much of a change, would it?
I have never heard it shortened that way, but I have heard むずい. I don`t think it`s all that common though. Rather than say 難しい, I think that if someone was using slang they would say something else.
太い can indeed be ふてぇ... But I think the situations it would be used are kind of limited.

I was just thinking that I hear きもっ all the time for きもい, but I can't remember hearing きめ. Maybe it's more of a Kanto thing than a Kansai thing. I hear Kansai speakers say きもっ and きもい all the time.
I also hear more こわ in Kansai for こわい than こうぇ～ (sic?) but すげ～ seems to be creeping into Kansai.

I don`t think that きめ is anywhere close to being as common as きもっ, but it`s still normal and I think that anyone hearing it would know what was being said.
I can picture someone saying マジこえぇ, but not マジこわ. Around here girls say こわ and guys say こえぇ. As far as I know, すげ～ has been pretty standard for a long time. It was back 10 years ago - in fact, it seemed more Kanto then to me as everyone I met from Tokyo would use that kind of contraction but when they were from somewhere else.
For example, a friend of mine who`d moved to this area from Tokyo would use わかっない, but everyone else would say わからん. Her brother would use ぜ, etc - but everyone else was using ぞ...
Those were some of the first regional differences I noticed.
