    Does those ramps work when you rotate your tires? :popcorn:

    I drive a Miata.
    She sits on the ground when I do fluids.

    I run a pair of 3 ton and a pair of 6 ton stands for doing rotations.

    I have the plastic HF ramps for doing fluids and rotations on the Mazda (floor jack can't reach a center jack point without them) :anonymous::anonymous:

    Put a set together using 2x10's. I wanted a flat bottom so that they wouldn't sink into the blacktop. The steel ones I used to have would skid around on concrete too....these don't move at all when driving up onto them.

    i use a jack and jackstands. i tried ramps. they would randomly and violently shoot out from underneath the vehicle at the worst possible times. one car that was in pristine shape got a 12" gash in it's bumper from them shooting out...

    I use Rhino ramps too. Been great for 5 years and yes, I use them every oil change. It makes it easier and I own them so why not?

    Same ramps, but I always supplement with a floor jack, jack stands and rear wheel chocks. Be safe.

    These Harbor Freight Ramps have worked great for me.
