Did you use these with your FRS? They were too steep to get my (stock) BRZ up on. I would like something like the Race Ramps, but they are six times as much $:

I have not.The angle of the lip on the Talon worked but it was a bit different than the FRS

I have a set of rhinos, but like Tcoat, I also haven't tried using them with my twin. I will have to check. I'm lowered an inch.

I use these to change my oil. They are just a hair steep, but a 1x4 at the lead-up gives just enough clearance.
