Default Flush Look Wheel Spacers: Comparison Before After Pics

Do you like your OEM wheels, but can't get past them being sunk in the wheel wells? For you guys wanting that flush look on your OEM wheels, vs them being sunken in, we now have the wheel spacer solution with pics on my C8 with black ice wheel finish. The car looks lower and sportier with the wheels flush. I prefer the 10mm look!

  • Flush look
  • Nearly 1" wider track
  • 6mm almost flush or 11mm flush spacer option
  • Sold in pairs
  • Chrome or Black ET lugs included
  • Fits all C8 models and OEM wheel styles

Paragon released 20mm spacers. if the 10mm make it flush i wonder why they doubled it...

I wonder the same. Since I'll be ordering spacers from someone, can folks out there comment on the 10mm versus 20mm issue? Aside from stud length, are there other considerations?

I would also love to see and compare the 20mm from Paragon with these 11mm.

What is the impact on paint protection for the 20mm. Is there a wheel trim product in the works or is it a non issue?
