Change spark plugs with car on ramps?

Is it possible to change the spark plugs with the car on ramps instead of removing the rear wheels?

When I changed a coil pack a few months ago, I put the car on a jack stand and removed the wheel and fender liner for access. I saw a post on Rennlist where one of the posters said that he had done the job on Rhino ramps.

When I was working on my car, I just assumed I needed to remove the wheel. I guess I could just roll the car up on the ramps and see how tight it is.

Personally, I would rather use ramps if the access won't be too tight. I'd like to hear from folks who have personally used ramps and find out if there are any problems or tips to be aware of.

Thanks
