I had a set of metal ones w/ the little fold out extensions for low cars... they sucked, as my car tended to just push them across the garage floor instead of driving up them, plus my 255 tires were wider than the ramps.

Usually, I just ended up jacking the car up, then jamming the ramps under the tires... i.e. using them as jack stands that went under the tires so I could work on my sway bar at normal ride-height.

When I moved, I left them behind 'cause they sucked. But the ramps you linked to aren't the same kind... maybe those are much better, but I've just given up on ramps and just use jackstands for everything.
