ya I have them, they are pretty good. They are suppose to be the best ramps for lower cars, so they work good for our cars. However I have a GLI lip and I have to ramp up some wood to get on to them

Save your money. I bought them and would take them back if I could. 1: They are too flimsy. 2. they don't raise the car enough to really have good access. 3: they
skid forwards when you try to drive onto them. and 4:They
are too flimsy. Much better are the homebulit ones that I
saw Neil @ Evolution Imports using. Higher, more secure,
and cheaper. Spend your money on plywood and 2 X 6
materials. Glue and Screw. Be Happy. Just my 2 Cents

since the cheapest ones are rated at 8,000 lbs, I don't think you have to worry about them being too flimsy.
They also have a rubber "non-skid base" which works a lot better than other ramps I have seen
for 20-some dollars you can't go wrong

I also have them and feel 100% secure with them while being under either my Jetta or my Grand Caravan.

You only get $20 off $40 if you have a CT Option MasterCard, else only $10 off but is still good.
Where do you get the coupon for CTC?

I used my buddies rhino ramps, for a bit, then that 20$ off coupon came out and I got my own,

I love them, much easier then trying to jack the car up all the time, just wished they were a little taller, but I''ll survive.
