4" lift, 35's, and tube fenders be an ok way to go?

Reason i question this is because the other way would be to go with a 5.5" RE LA.. which would really cost some money compared to the tube fenders.. you figure $2,700 for the kit alone, around $1,000 for the tires, some where around $400-500 for wheels, and what ever it is for labor and your talking upwards of $5,000! So with tube fenders.. front and rear going for around $1,000 and 35's.. be about half the cost.

Would this work well or would it not be a good idea to do?
