I'm also looking at the same type of setup. Keeping the stock tires for everyday, and the 35's for wheeling trips.

Only rubbed when full flex, and no it wasn't enough to tear off the fenders, just an annoying/loud sound as the tire's tread rubbed across the fender lip. Freaks you out the first time you hear it because it sounds like you're tearing the fender completely off. But once you hear it a few times you get used to it.
