I don't replace or remove any of them. I add a bunch of additional households from my gallery to fill up all of the other houses in all the worlds right from the start, but I leave all of the premades, and also move in quite a few maxis premades that aren't normally already in homes.
I play across many generations, so the premades will be dead and replaced with their born-in-game descendants relatively quickly anyway. I use MCCC so it does a great job of making sure everyone has babies and that they pair off when they become YA's.
One of my favorite parts of playing the game, actually, is seeing the descendants of premades and which other family they pair off and make their own babies with.
I almost never actively play any premades though. My current game is the first time I've done that at all in TS4, though I did it a lot in TS2. It is also the first time I have played TS4 rotationally rather than just following a legacy family.
So far, the only premades in my rotation are the Feng's; they are real estate moguls, owning 2 retail locations and a restaurant. I'm on generation 3 of the game, but I've been using potions to keep Victor and Lily around (something I rarely do).
