Mine are 17v panels wired in parallel.

 If you wire in series you'll double the voltage (17v to 34v) and burn out your solar controller (max 30v). Wiring in parallel will double the amperage (8a to 16a) but that's ok since the controller can handle up to 25amps.
Positive to positive, negative to negative.
