Perfecting Your Corvette's Steering: C5 Drift Plates and Tie Rods

Corvettes are icons of speed and performance, but when it comes to drifting or track domination, even legends can use a little fine-tuning. That’s where SLRspeed's C5 drift plates and C5 tie rods come into play, delivering the precision and durability needed to excel in competitive drifting and circuit racing. Paired with our C6 racing arms, these components create a Corvette steering setup that is second to none.


C5 Drift Plates: The Key to Extreme Steering Angles

Drift plates are the unsung heroes of steering optimization. Designed to adjust the lower control arm pivot points, SLRspeed’s C5 drift plates unlock sharper steering angles and improved wheel positioning, crucial for maintaining control during high-speed drifts.

  • Enhanced Steering Lock: Achieve the extreme angles needed to sustain deep drifts without losing traction.
  • Improved Tire Contact: Drift plates optimize tire placement, ensuring maximum grip and control during every slide.
  • Durable Construction: Made from high-grade materials, our drift plates are built to endure the demands of competitive drifting.

With SLRspeed’s drift plates installed, your C5 Corvette becomes a precision tool, capable of navigating tight transitions and aggressive entries with ease.


C5 Tie Rods: Reinforced Precision

Tie rods play a vital role in steering accuracy, and the demands of drifting can push stock components past their limits. SLRspeed’s C5 tie rods are engineered to handle the rigors of high-performance driving while delivering razor-sharp steering feedback.

  • Extended Adjustability: Dial in the perfect alignment to suit your drifting style or circuit racing needs.
  • Unmatched Strength: Constructed from premium materials, these tie rods resist bending and deformation under extreme conditions.
  • Perfect Fit: Designed specifically for the C5 Corvette, these tie rods install easily and integrate seamlessly with other suspension upgrades.

Whether you’re initiating a drift or navigating a technical section on the track, our tie rods ensure that your inputs translate into precise, predictable steering.


C6 Racing Arms: The Next-Level Upgrade

For C5 and C6 Corvette owners pushing the limits, SLRspeed’s C6 racing arms are a game-changer. Designed for both drifting and circuit racing, these arms improve suspension geometry, reducing tire wear and enhancing handling.

  • Track-Ready Performance: Optimized for grip and cornering stability, these racing arms excel on the track or in tandem drifting.
  • Reduced Flex: Rigid construction ensures consistent handling, even under the most demanding conditions.
  • Versatile Compatibility: While ideal for C6 Corvettes, these racing arms can also complement upgrades on a C5 chassis with the right setup.
