If you’ve ever struggled to get a jack under your lowered car, you’re not alone. When it comes to oil change ramps, the average plastic options from auto stores just won’t cut it. At SLR, we get it — you need a ramp system that’s low enough to clear your aero, strong enough to support your car, and portable enough for your garage or track setup. That’s where split-style race ramps shine.
Why Traditional Oil Change Ramps Don’t Work for Lowered Cars
Most car ramps on the market are designed for stock-height vehicles. Their steep incline makes them unusable — or even dangerous — for lowered vehicles or those with front splitters. Driving up them can cause damage to your bumper, undertray, or even cause the car to get stuck halfway up.
The Race Ramps Advantage
SLR’s low profile split-style race ramps solve all those problems. Made of durable high-density foam with a textured grip surface, they provide a safe and gradual incline that works perfectly for lowered cars. The split design allows you to remove the ramp after raising the car, giving full access for oil changes or underbody inspections.
- 7° incline — clears even slammed cars
- Two-piece split design — jack access and complete safety
- 8000 lb capacity — enough for most vehicles
- Lightweight & portable — great for trackside maintenance
How to Use Ramps for Oil Changes
Here’s how to get the most out of your race ramps for DIY oil changes:
- Line up the ramps with your front tires.
- Drive up slowly, ensuring alignment as you go.
- Place wheel chocks behind the rear wheels for safety.
- Remove the top half of the ramps if using the split design.
- Perform your oil change with full underbody access.
