[QUOTE="WPGZ06, post: 253129, member: 4406"] Four different sizes of race ramps exist. the 56" and 67" will work with the C7 contrary to what some people will tell you. IF you have done some other modifications to alter the front end it may rub but RR also makes "xtenders" for their ramps as well to reduce the angle of the ramps even more. The big difference between 56" (what I got)and the 67" is they are two piece so once you drive up and within the cradle or against the stop you can remove the first half of the ramp to allow easier access below the car. There is plenty of room to get under the car to complete an oil change. No problem. You would not be able to drive up on 4 ramps at once, the corvette is too low and skirting would never allow for it. They do offer a ramp set you drive up on that is full length and supports all four tires and keeps car level, but they are expensive and at that price your better off buying a lift (they are mostly used by detailers and track rats) My setup works getting the car completely level if I wanted to, as all I have to do is drive up the ramps to support the front and then jack the rear, place it on my cribs and the car sits level. If I'm storing for winter or doing something that will take a lot longer (headers, etc.) then I will put all four tires up on the cribs to work on the car and more than enough room to go underneath. Hope that makes sense. [/QUOTE]
