Typical spacing between chainrings is 5mm.
However, it is all about the chainline.

Judging from a photo is basically impossible but I'm going to do it anyway,
your spacers look wider than my 3.5. I'll betcha 3.5 is the ticket for you.

Oh sheesh, how about "If the rings are not flush with where you place the
spacers, well then you must add/subtract that distance from each other".
Some chainrings are thicker than others. that said, it doesn't have to be
exact, you simply don't want to use something much too thick, like a 5mm
I would guess on 4mm. The worst that happens is you change em again!

Hi all, I'm selling a SRAM 2x10 speed setup that I had on my Sam for a
couple of years. It is a super fun setup and works great. It's all very
lightly worn.
I'd like to get $350 for the entire setup, or see suggested la carte
pricing below. Let me know if I am way off on price for this stuff!
Oh, and my spacers are AFAIK from the 7 speed or 8 speed era -- they've
been in my little drawer for decades -- and I'm using them with an 11
("eleven") speed chain (42/28 X 10-25 10 sp cassette); it never occurred to
me that I might have spacing problems and in fact I never have had any.

I've never had to use spacers on chainrings, but I've also never
disassembled the aforementioned crank. To my mind, if you need spacers on
a crankset, you've designed something wrong.

Joel,
If this helps, my 8 speed setup is: Guard/44/30 — but with a Sugino crank
(if that makes a difference). Shifted with a Claris triple. No spacers
involved and works fine.
Perhaps try without the spacers and /or play with the adjustment on the
derailer.

On Saturday,
The other possibility here is you're using a narrow 10-speed chain, it
might hang up a bit between the middle and small rings on a Silver crank if
the shift is a little lazy.

I recall a Grant write up a few years ago comparing the Silver to the XD2 2
and I remember something about spacers on the 74mm BCD posts.
If the crank is on the bike, you can measure the distance form the end of
the seat tube to the teeth of the Middle and Inner
Somewhere between 3.5-3.6mm should work as that's what I measure the
spacing between the large arms on every crank I own. I measured the
thickness of the arm "shelves" up which the rings sit. So if the inner ring
mounting holes are flush with the middle ring, it's obvious a 3.5-3.6mm
spacer
I've not used the Silvers but some square taper triples used spacers
between middle and granny; I just looked at the spacers between the 42 t
ring and the 28 t granny on my Logic 110 triple (guard/42/28).

Btw needing spacers on a Silver crank instead of having the spacing built
in is useful. You can use really thin ones to get the rings closer for a
double-ring-plus-guard 11- or 12-speed drivetrain.

Joel, for purposes of chaining I'd suggest ignoring the bash guard and
reference your chainline as you would for a conventional double (the bash
guard is irrelevant to tchainline considerations. If you happen to have a
long enough meter/yardstick (or something like it) you can lay one end
