We run traces between SMT pads all the time...so long as there is adequate
room to completely cover the trace with a tough LPI soldermask. One has to
consider registration tolerances when determining whether the room is adequate.
The LPI must also coat the corners of the trace well (it is always thinnest
there). Dendritic growth is the concern when you have bare traces/pads close
together and operate in a humid environment.

Are there any reasons not to route traces in between pads
of SOIC or PLCC devices?
Specifically, 8 mil traces between SOIC or PLCC devices
with 25 mil wide pads.
Thanks for your help
