I did as Cyclofiend did with plastic fenders (extra QR clips). With metal fenders, it still works okay. I use large tires, so the fender is further from the axle, which gives more room for rolling the wheel out the ends. I also don't super-tighten the stay bolts, so I can pull the fender out a bit for wheel removal or installation.
