I have a 2015 Z51 that I need to add jacking pucks to. I plan to add side skirts down the road so I believe I need taller jacking pucks than just a 1/2 inch puck. I am wondering what is recommended? Also, have you used the twist in type or the bolt in type? Do the twist in type stay in or do you take them out for normal daily operation?? Thanks for any help you can give.

On my last two C5s and now my C7 I have used a set of BMW snap in jacking pucks. Never had a problem using them and I too have added side skirts to my car. There are plenty of options for jacking pucks - just have to decide which one is best for you.

If you are asking me that question, I bought mine from a local BMW dealer. The height of the puck is approximately 1/2” and through use on 2 C5s and now my C7, I have never had a problem with using a floor jack and having any interference with rocker panels or side skirts.
I have the aluminum pucks that stay installed permanently. I also have a set of EOS side skirts. Pucks work fine with my jack stands and with my QuickJack
I also have the 1/2" high plastic snap-in pucks on my Z06. I've had no issues with them. You just have to get your head down low enough to see them behind the side skirts.
I have the Amazon red aluminum jack pucks..... Works good, looks good, leave them on the car and forget them.
I have the same ones. 2017 GS, I drive the front tires on 2x6's to make it easier but it's possible without them. I'm lowered all the way on stock bolts.

I have these on my car with a full length side skirt and I’ve had no issues with a low pro jack
