A 3.5" speaker puts slightly more sound up high(er) and in front of you in terms of true midrange, and would allow the woofer to function as a true woofer or midbass.
Your available midrange/midbass/woofer options seem to be very good, and the costs are reasonable if you don't pay for the passive crossovers. If you use component midrange/mdbass/woofers and buy good 3.5" speakers, you pay about what you pay for a modest component set but get (in theory) better sound, particularly when you use an active anplifier setup.
Negatives: Like you said, setup would or could be a PITA.

Got it. Yea, my Hertz setup has a 1" tweeter installed next to a 3" mid in the stock location and then the 6.5" in the door. With your setup, you'd gain the half inch on the mid portion.
Why not just run a 5 channel amp so you can run all the speakers off the amp along with the sub?
