Perfect ramps for less than $15.00 including the rubber spray on the back to keep them from sliding on smooth concrete. They are 18" long and slide under my tool box for storage.

While checknig out the Raceramps.com page, I also saw these suckers which would be useful for anyone living in an area like the northeast and running sticky tires:

That is a lot of money to fix a problem that was solved with radial tires years ago.

Here is a vid of the Race Ramps that Race Ramps developed for low clearance cars with splitters, based on my requirements.

Down and back up on the ramps

The also made some trailer adapters for them.

Just contact the Race Ramps folks for more info.

Or just get a set of stock wheels with some old skins and store the car on them.

^ MY BBK would make that difficult. But that would work for most people.


Or just jack the car up and store it with the wheels off the ground.

I got a good deal on a set of the rhino ramps that autozone sells(sold) however my car is lowered and would never come close to clearing the ramps. I just grabbed some wood I had lying around to make an extension....has worked fine for years...and makes quick checks a breeze.

Since I'm ALWAYS in the car I set up my phone once to see actually how much clearance I have with the front lip.

In this weather we're having your Star Specs will flat-spot like a mother..... ask me how I know. You can be forgiven for thinking otherwise based on your last set of rock-hard Falkens

I do agree that stock wheels or jack stands are probably a cheaper alternative

We have a set of Flatstoppers at each of our lifts. They provide a centered stopping point, as well as a couple extra inches of lift to get the arms in place. We have been using them for years, great product.
