Paragon 20mm spacers and EOS splash guards installed
Now that I have some extended splash guards to install and removing the rear wheels makes the install easier, I decided to install some 20mm spacers on the rear I have that I originally picked up for my Stingray but never put on. I know that Paragon has 15mm ones that they recommend for the rears but others have used 20’s and report no issues. I also don’t particularly like having to trim the stock lugs and the work involved. The 20’s may give the appearance that the tires poke out a bit but the truth is they don’t. The EOS splash guards were a breeze to install and mine did not require any trimming. They could fit a little tighter in some spots but nothing I can’t live with. As others have said, you can get by without spacers on the front but some 10mm would look better. I may do that down the road. Also notice how little clearance there is between the front wheel and liner when cut all the way. Couldn’t slide a 1/4” shim in the gap.

So I purchased this set of (4) 20mm second hand on this forum a long ways back for my Stingray and never installed them. After installing a pair on the Z I no longer need the other pair. They are in good condition sans the scratches on the faces that contact the wheels. Anybody wants this pair I will sell for $100 shipped. I don’t know if you can purchase just 2 from Paragon.
