Car Ramps

Car Ramps
I just changed the oil in my daughters 1992 Camry and used some car ramps a friend gave me. So much easer than using a jack and stands. I cannot use these ramps on my 2006 Accord as it hits the ramp about 3/4s of the way up. Has anyone found ramps that work well with the newer Accords? Thanks....Jack K

RE: Car Ramps
The ramps I've used w/ my '89, '92, and '94 Accords wouldn't work w/ my '98. Same problem as OP; bottom of bumper hits the ramp before tires do.
This worked for me; I cut a 2' length of 2 X 8 wood, and put that down in front of the ramps. Now the tires ride up on the wood, giving enough clearance so the bottom of bumer doesn't scrape the ramps.

RE: Car Ramps
I've got a pair of ramps that came with these plastic wedges that extend the slope way back. It makes them about 50% longer, and theybarelyclear the front of my cars. I think it was a way to keep selling the same old steel ramps now that all cars have lower front lips.
