Its paying for speed and conenience. $200 is a lot, but they are very light, wont mess up your interior if you take them with you, do not slip, and are the right demensions. Makes things quick and painless. This isnt for the very budget minded, but they work beautifully in my experience.

I can't get a jack under my car in the front. I have four takata service ramps but usually only use two. They're $60 and specifically designed for lowered cars so you can get a jack underneath.
I always work on my car on jack stands.
As for jack points, I use the front tow hook and the rear diff.

I have used the rhino ramps for many different types of cars. I was never able to get the Evo on to the rhino ramps without scraping (my Evo is lowered) however for many cars they sometime slip but it usually isn't a big deal. Trucks however seem to have problems getting onto them. Whenever I try to pull an SUV onto them they go flying. Maybe I should just give in and get a lift =)

Bringing this back from the dead.
I just bought the 12,000 lbs version of the rhino ramps for $43.88 for 2 pairs (4 ramps altogether) at walmart. I think they are normally $43.88 for 1 pair, but I looked at the very back of the shelf and 2 pairs were zip locked together like they belong that way. Needless to say I snatched those up right away!
They also had the 8,000 lbs version, but the 12,000 lbs ones have a wider track for wider tires and it had more support underneath.
I haven't tried it yet, but I doubt they will slip due to the large rubber pad at the front of the ramp.
I should have bought these sooner!

my car is lowered on S techs and i was wondering if my car would fit on any of these ramps.... i wouldnt mind having a jack but i also have a truck and my low profile jack wont go high enough to lift that also... so it would be easier and cheaper for me to just buy ramps. so if someone could chime in on is these ramps would work with s techs i would highly appreciate it!
