Wow my car must be lower because I can't seem to find a ramp that would actually fit under the car for the rear wheels to not rub the sides, unless you used the jack to get it on the ramps which is the same as jack stands....

I used Rhino ramps to drive up but had to modify the ramps with wood transition pieces so I would not scrape the front end. Once I got drove onto the ramps, I jacked the center of the car and used those same transition pieces along with a few other wood pieces to balance out the car on the back end.

Ramps in the rear would be more stable and safer then jack stands.
