Shouldn't have a problem unless they are big fans. Do you know how many amps the fans draw each?

Unless your using huge fans, 30amp relay will be enough. 4 3" computer fans is only like 1amp total.

I got a 3" fan here saying .11Amps so 4 would be less then half an amp. Not really much. The LED fans take a bit more. Make sure to fuse the hot line coming into the relay approprately. A small inline fuse would be a good investment.
