Sure, go to home depot and buy a couple of 2x10x8 treated boards, a box of screws and make some.
This is exactly what I did, except plain wood, not treated. Work as good as any other, and cost is very cheap. ALSO-I used a masonry bit and my DeWalt hammer drill to drill a hole in the concrete, just in front of the properly placed ramps. Stick a 1/2" diameter, approximately 3" long carriage bolt (carriage bolts have a nice rounded head) in each hole, and the ramps wont scoot forward. I bought stainless steel bolts because they resist bending better. FWIW.....

I bit the bullet and bought the race ramps with the low angle approach ramps. I think it was one of the best purchases I ever made. I use them on my Grand Cherokee, my Colorado, the Corvette, and my girlfriend's Toyota. I use them more than I ever thought I would. No regrets at all. Ken
On another note, I bought mine a few years ago when I put in a new fuel pump and did some other work. I thought about the car rolling off of the ramps and did a little modification. Probable over-kill, but the word kill is involved. LOL

I have to agree. To be honest, get the proper tool for a proper job. Money well spent than spend over a Benjamin on some cheaply made house brand ramps that still have a questionable approach angle.
The approach angle is key on using for the application and Race Ramps have it. You have the money spend it as needed.
We all want to take care of our vehicles the best we can and safely. The return on investment for Race Ramps is high especially if a person has a fleet of several vehicles.

Not only this, what I like a whole lot about my two piece race ramps. They are light as heck. Easy to hang on a wall where ever you want. And do not make annoying (To me anyway) scraping noises when you slide them on the floor.
Are there any good ramps out there that don't cost $300 or more that a C5 will clear and raise it high enough to get under?
No. Even the 10" lift Race Ramps don't get the car high enough to easily do much under it.
If you're used to just rolling the creeper under your vehicle up on the ramps and rolling around to do whatever it ain't happening with a Corvette.
Also this low profile 3 ton long reach jack is on sale also, it lifts a little higher and instead of grey/silver you can get it in 4 choices of colors green blue orange black.
