I picked up my C8 two weeks ago and want to get a set of leave in jacking pucks for it. Unlike the C7, there does't seem to too many options so I was wondering which one people seem to be the most happy with?

These are 9/16 inches thick and About $40 on Amazon.
Won't work of you have or are going to add side skirts. I use Reverse Logic 1" high pads that can be installed temporarily by bolting but have to removed as they stick down too far.

Do you know if these or the Paragon ones are Made in America? Thanks
Crap, I read these DID work with sideskirts so I bought them. Side skits (from AHC) are sitting in basement with pucks while I await an allocation. I guess I should return the pucks to Amazon. Are there any pucks that do work with 5VM?
I have the carbon fiber ground effects side skirts on my21. I bought the $40 pucks from Amazon in bright red. They work fine! I have 2 sets of wheels and tires. One set for track use. I have changed wheels and tires about 11 times with absolutely no problems. The red pucks make it very easy for the tire shop to get the correct jack points.

thanks very much for the confirm. i was pretty sure i did my homework before i bought them, but i was second guessing myself.
I have the pucks from Paragon. They are fine. Easy to install and they say Jack Here!
I also have those and love them. I have always used the standard aluminum pucks, put in and take out each time. With the C8, I wanted to make it super easy for any technician to put the car on the lift properly.

Jerry,
I also have grounds effects on my car and I was wondering what pucks you installed on your car. Again, thank you for the information you've provided me know it's truly appreciated.
If there are no skirts on the C8 are 9/16 inch thickness adequate and safe to use with a jack?
Does installing these pucks make it difficult for a dealer to use their lift?
I am asking cause I read that dealers prefer not to have these pucks installed on C8s when you take them for servicing as these pucks interferes with their lifts.
Thank you.

I have side skirts and was surprised when someone said the 9/16 inch permanent pads work with the GM Side Skirts. My C7 Carbon are slightly thicker and I thought min one inch would be needed.
Here are some pics of what I have used and what the dealer used that I keep in the tool bag in the Frunk.
Dealer tech used my Reverse Logic pads that allowed him to access the panel bolts close to the jack pad location.
With my short arm light jack used my 2 inch high pads and thought 1 inch would just have sufficient clearence.
When I installed my side skirts my 1 inch pads just cleared my 90 lb long reach, long arm jack.
