If I have understood the table at http://www.lehigh.edu/~dmd1/immtable correctly, then $\mathbb{RP}^{10}$ embeds into $\mathbb{R}^{17}$. But by Mahowald, Mark *On the embeddability of the real projective spaces.* Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 13 1962 763–764. $\mathbb{RP}^9$ does not embed into $\mathbb{R}^{16}$.
