the fronts you could i guess get away with leaving on..but the rears you will have to take off as you will find access is very linited otherwise...

What ones did you order?

front wheels need to come off. the rear flaps can be fitted with wheels in place

I managed to do all mine without taking any wheels off however taking them off will make it easier.

Welcome to Scooby world
As above.

I tried to leave the fronts on and wasted about half an hour.

yep, i fitted the scoobyworld flaps on mine last week and the rears can be done with the wheels still on, but the fronts are a nightmare to do because of the longer bracket and the hole you need to drill for the self tappers Even with the wheels off, i found getting the clip-nuts in place on the fronts rather fiddly, because they have to go under a piece of plastic trim (it just about bends out of the way enough!).

Saying that, i took all my wheels off and gave them a clean at the same time

Hey all,

Yep I have these aswell and as mentioned I managed to fit them without taking the wheels off. Back ones were the easy ones. Front were a pain in the *** but it can be done. Easyer than taking the wheels off in my oppinion.
