Default Affordable ramps

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?

here are options. I have the $149 ramps. The rubber drags but the car goes up fine. The ramp removes.

For the money they are good I often use the cradle part and just jack it up and put the wheels in them.

Sure, go to home depot and buy a couple of 2x10x8 treated boards, a box of screws and make some.

I like my RaceRamps. They are super lightweight but very solid.

Most of the race or rhino ramps work for your car if it's the stock height and doesn't have a splitter. If it does, you're better off making ramps out of wood. The video posted on here is good but, I went a slightly different route. It's more work but, it is better for my use. The difference is that I used latches to completely remove that portion and not just swing out of the way.
