For the shields, the fronts are out of the way, no need to do anything with it. For the rears, people trim the entire thing off, but really it's just the lip and a small part by the caliper that's blocking the way. It's personal preference on that one.

If the rear rotors refuse to come out, you can try this how-to. I actually bought all the parts but never had to use 'em:

Good stuff, exactly how I got my rears off. Didn't search for this either, but good to see I am not the only one who did this.
