Don't see why you should unless adding an after-market kit. I have mine on with 20s and it looks pretty good.

if you like rocks and that hitting the underside of the car and scratching the paint, then go ahead and take them off

Just look at some pics of both mudguards on and off. Decide what you like best. One way is not better than the other, it's just a matter of preference.

i recall a massive debate over this. Consensus was that it looks better off when you have 19's.

Take them off. If you don't like the way they look put them back on.
