Default Low Profile Car Ramps
Not sure if I am posting in the right area. Sorry if I did it incorrectly.
Can anyone tell me where I can find some low profile/rise car ramps. With the front lip and my car being lowered I need to find ramps that start out very low. I need them to get my jack under the car.

Those are too steep I would not be able to make it up. My lip would push the ramp. The ones like Go tuning has work great (not as steep of a slope)

For $70, I think I'd rather buy a 2x6 and have it cut into four pieces so I could build my own ramp.

I built my own. I used 2X10s nailed together, cut at a 45 degree angle, although I'd recommend 2X12s for anybody that was planning on doing it. I'll try to take pictures of it if I get around to it.
