I’m able to drive up the Bob’s ramps with no trouble. The angle of Rhino ramps is steeper, so I could see potential to slip.

My Race Ramps extenders were delivered today. Can't wait to give them a try this weekend. They will enable my 67 inch ramps to drop from 10 degrees to 6.6 degrees.

Seems if I wanted RaceRamps for my ZLE I would have to go with the 72 inch with the 6.8 approach angle.

Is there an ideal among the race ramps selections for a stock Camaro? My '24 SS doesn't have a splitter, but most videos I've seen using race ramps still just barely graze the front end one way or another. I'm looking at the 2 piece 67" ramps, but I'm intrigued to see what others have used.


Also - any idea on whether raceramps (or another retailer) will have a decent Black Friday sale?

I have no issues with my SS 1LE rubbing on my 67" two piece Race Ramps, so you shouldn't have any issues with a regular SS with no front splitter. My ZL1 does rub some, that's why I purchased Race Ramp Extenders to reduce the approach angle to 6.6 degrees.

I have the 56" 2 piece race ramps and SS 1LE has about 1" of clearance from splitter to ramp. Never touches going up or down the ramps. Work awesome!!

I used the measurements/test/calculator thing they have at the bottom of the page to determine if the 56" would work on my car.

Awesome, thanks!


I might opt for the 56" given that they're significantly cheaper than the 67", although I'm still mulling over whether the 8" will make it a little too cozy to be under the car. Buy once, cry once, right?

I haven't changed oil or anything yet with them, but used them to install lift blocks. I'm a pretty lean guy though so we'll see how an oil change goes.

Do you think 3" is enough to change the oil? I hate driving up ramps and if I mess up on these the fall will be minimal.

I ordered these exact ramps to install the ACS skirts and a set of jack pads/blocks. They are not high enough for an oil change. They were barely high enough to install the skirts with a right angle drill. I used one front and one rear to do each side at a time. They are well built for what they are. I used rubber drawer liner under each ramp to be sure they wouldn’t slide on the concrete floor.

My ancient 56" by 8" tall race ramps, bought to use with my 2010 SS, do just clear the air dams on my 2023 ZL1.

I think those might just work for me. I've been kicking the idea around for months.
