The wheels don't have to be off the ground, or off the car in order to do the LCA's, but it does make it MUCH easier when you're trying to line it all back up again.

And what supports the suspension while the LCA's are off? The ones in the front theres no way the car would stay up if the LCA's are off.

I think you're the only one talking about the LCA's in the front but in that case I would agree tires come off and jack stands or a lift would be required.

I put in Tubular LCA's ad PHB yesterday. I did it with air tools and a lift though

Not a hard job unless the bolts bind in the bushings. Then its time for the tourch or sawsall.
