I have the Blitz ramps and since it doesn't clear was going to try the above quoted approach as well. However, I'm a little concerned that the lack of weight at the front wheel might not be enough and will result in the front tire just pushing the ramp forward without catching. On my mom's Lexus (which does clear without any additional work) since its RWD, it pushes the ramp at first unless I drive on the 3 - 4 inches inches rather quickly.

If you do that maybe try putting the ramps on a surface rougher than the standard garage paved surface. Maybe the driveway or part of the street near your house if its flat.
