Default Lowered on stock bolts - Rhino Ramps

Does anyone who is lowered all the way on stock bolts use Rhino Ramps? How difficult are they to get on? I would assume you would still have to use some sort of ramp to get on the ramps.

Cool thanks I will prob pick up a set of these. Do you have to back up on them or are you able to pull forward straight up on them?

this is sortof related, in a peripheral fashion... after I got my kwik lift, I found that I needed to put the ramps up on 4x4's, so that I could get the floor jack underneath. This necessitated making new approach ramps. So... off to the lumber yard I went. 2x6's, combined with 3/8" plywood gave me the height I needed. I then started cutting the 2x6's from full width at one end down to nothing at the other, over a length of 43". After I had them all cut, I glued & screwed them together. They work great... and were relatively inexpensive... tho were I to do it again, would probably make them about 46" long (less scraping in front). Cutting was kindof a pain... a regular circular saw was just too big for a diagonal cross/rip on a 2x6. Bought a smaller 4" circular that worked great, tho the shoe & the blade were not perfectly aligned. I tried using a guide rail for the saw, but the blade kept binding... so once I got the cut started about 6-8", I took the guide rail off & free-cut it. Not as straight of a cut, but good enough.

I agree! Great looking car. The tinted windows, chrome wheels, and lower stance make it really pop....

Well I picked up a set of these exact ramps yesterday and my car won't go up on them without rubbing the bumper pretty bad. I believe if I use some boards I can make them work though. So once up on the platform of the ramp how do you remove the the back part of the ramp so that the wheel chock works??
