I just use standard ramps but I don't use them like ramps I jack my car up and then let it down on top of the ramps, my car is too low for the ramps.

Put a 2x4 at the bottom of the ramp. It decreases the elevation of the ramp

Walmart ramps are the most popular around here.

The site has a review of some ramps that are low enough for low cars. I haven't used them but you may want to try those, or at least read the review.

I just built a very well constructed set out of wood similar to the raceramps, but making sure that they would fit. They aren't as light, and definitely not for hauling around, but they do the trick pretty well!

PS. don't build crappy ramps, DIAF, and then blame me
