They will clean up! I just did my annual spring cleaning where I jack it up, remove the wheel, clean the whell wells and the back side of the wheels, looks great!

You cna always use painters tape on the fenders behind the wheels. Thats a race trick. May not stop gravel from marking the paint though. The car will still be dirty, but it might help with the "sand blasting" of the dirt and some debri though. Not a perfect solution but it's a thought. Most important, TAKE YOUR TIME!
