Need new car ramps

I need to buy new car ramps. Last oil change I had so much trouble getting the car up on my old steel ramps. I had to use all sorts of wood and blocks to get up on them.

I need some sort of low profile ramps that would fit an srt on stage 1 springs. I am not looking to spend alot either, I am open to do it yourself methods if they are sturdy as well..

any ideas, what do you guys use?

My friend has some cool ones I tried and like. They look just like leggos. You just stack the plastic on top of each other and then you drive on them. Works great and when your done you just stack them in a corner. Dam, can't remember what he called them. He said he got them at some Rv dealership.

I use Rhino Ramps which I purchased at Walmart - they work great! (I have S3 coilovers)

I bought some rhino ramps and my car won't make it. I'm on goldlines.

Good selection here too. I have used them before and had no problems.

jack stands are not very helpful as there is no front center jacking point that will lift the whole car at once.

I also think the regular rhino ramps will rub. Does anyone have the low profile rhino ramps?

I also found these

These are around 70 and I was hoping to find something cheaper

I made my own out of 2x8's.
Just make a cardboard template and make a shape that will work first.
The nice thing about making your own is that you can make them as long or as tall as you want. In fact, I am thinking of making two of them long enough to drive the whole car up on.

You could always jack up one side of the car, put your ramp under the wheel, then do the other side. I have the Rhino ramps and can barely get a stock suspension to roll up on them without some rub.

good luck.

Yo, my rhino ramps would not fit under my stock ride height car. I bought some at Pep-boys (30 bux) and they work fine. Hope this helps.

Please give me the brand of those ramps!!

Do you think they would fit with a Stage 1 spring drop or is it barely making it?
