With the SKS fenders: 1) Don't cut down the fender stays after installation. 2) Instead of putting the plastic caps on the fender stays, I ground all the edges off the tips with a dremel tool. 3) I carry an 8mm wrench as part of my tool kit (I started carrying the Park MT-1 tool).
To fix a flat I loosen the fender stays with the 8mm wrench and the rear wheel comes out fine; after the wheel is back on, I re-tighten the stays.
