oh nice.... well i think we can just either use wooden blocks to extend teh ramps.. or, u can raise the front of the car up using a floor jack, and then slide the ramps under the tires as far as it goes, and then lower the car on the ramp and drive the car up the rest of it.

rhino ramps also has a low profile ramp, it says it has a 17* incline, so that may be good for the lowered guys too. i tried to find a pic, but i cant, the interweb at work is suckin.
