Yeah those look just like the tomioka ramps. Maybe the same thing with different name. Weight is both 10 lbs it looks like and design looks the same.

Oh ... I thought the low profile ramps were longer and taller, so that you could actually get under the car. Why would anyone pay so much for these mini ramps, when they do the same thing as a couple 2X10 boards?

I have a set of these ramp extensions that I don't use. You can have them for dirt cheap if you want them. They are designed to lock into metal ramps with the round holes in them.

The pic isn't mine, but that is what they look like.

Dude, just use your spare tire Jack to raise the side up a little so your Jack slides in under the front center Jack point. It is pretty easy and quick to do, not to mention, it comes with the car. I did not like rhino ramps at all.

If you really want to buy ramps, check out race ramps.
