but seriously.. there are tons (literally, since most ramps are heavy) of options and reviews all over the web. What suits one, might not not suit another.
I suggest you take up oon some links and see some pictures and arrangements to see what might suit your needs.

There are some vendors in forum that offer ramps.
One of the products that come to mind are race ramps, low profile and great approach angle for the spoiler.
I believe those are offered by Reverse Logic.
You could also make your own.
Here is a link I posted in a different thread about some pretty good home made ramps.

You won't be disappointed in either the RR-56-2 or RR-XT-2 Race Ramps. The 56" ramps are 8" high and the XT (67") ramps are 10" high. The 67" ramps qualify for the $25 factory rebate (ends 30-sep-2013) on top of any discounts you get from resellers. So between discounts and factory rebates you can get the 2-pc 56" ramps for about $205 and the 2-pc 67" ramps for just over $275.
Get them at a CF sponsor here:

If you prefer you can pay a little more to get the ramps from your favorite book store.

The design I built and linked in post 7 seems much safer.

I have to admit less than warm/fuzzies when I look at that design too. Not even having a large enough plateau for final resting point, bothers me. That bottom board could split/break too. (Not all wood is equal).
The design I built and linked in post 7 seems much safer.

The plateau I admit could have been made a little larger. Still could by cutting the stop piece at an angle so that the tire goes forward another inch.
As long as the tire is against the stop, the size of the plateau isn't an issue as the center line of the wheel/tire is past the edge.

I already had some regular polymer heavy duty ramps so I just built ramps to get up onto the ramps. 
I purchased 2 10 foot 1x12's and cut them in sections of 5 feet, 3 feet and 2 feet. Just stack the sections on top of one another and screw them together so they will afford you clearance to your existing ramps. They work great and didn't cost $200 like the ones I've seen online.

Another vote for Race Ramps here! They are pricey but you get what you pay for IMO. They are lite, very versatile, and come in a range of styles and sizes. Take a look at their website and I don't think you'd be disappointed. You did ask for the best right?

Race Ramps $25 cash back factory rebate until 30-Sep-2013
Only two weeks left to take advantage of the $25 factory rebate which expires at the end of this month. Any purchase with $250 worth of new Race Ramps products on the same order (after shipping and discounts) qualifies for the rebate. This includes the custom extended length ramps offered by Reverse Logic.

Scratch and dent Race Ramps RR-56-2 $190
We have one set of RR-56-2 ramps with a dent in the platform section. The functionality of the ramps is not impacted by this shipping damage.
