Ramp for 911 C2S Aero
I personally do as much work on my cars as possible. The 911 C2S Aero makes things a bit more difficult as it's really low to the ground. I have yet to use my 2 ton jack but I think I could get it under her. I'd prefer ramps but the ride height, tire width and aero kit could present problems. Any suggestions on the best lift method for oil changes et al would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks but WOW. ~ $300 for the set I think is right for the C2S... Any other suggestions out there?

Some of the larger jacks have extremely low saddle heights. < 2"
Also, if you have 2 jacks you can get one under the back of the car and raise it a few inches and then use another jack to pick up the side from the standard points.

You might try contacting edgy01 at rennlist. I believe he is also on here occasionally.

get a set of rhino ramps. they're tough and inexpensive. ive got the aerokit too and they present no problems with the front lip scraping. it's tight but there is enough clearance.

I recommend Rhino ramps as well for changing the oil. ie: backing the car up on them.
Not a chance on this earth you could drive my aero C2S forward on to the ramps though. If I'm doing work on the front, I simply jack the car up. Low profile 2 ton jack still fits plenty fit on the sides.

Race Ramps
They are very light so I can store mine stacked wedge to wedge up high so they are out of the way.

Second everyone else with the rhinoramp/wood suggestion. Drive up on a 2x4 or two placed in front of the rhino ramp and you should have no trouble clearing.

I purchased a set of ramps from Pepboys. The first time I backed my car up on the ramps was the last time. They went out on the street the next week on trash collection day.
I'll get a set from Reverse Logic.

There is really no substitute for having the correct tool. This is very apparent to everyone reading this thread...

If the physics of modifying the auto superstore ramp incline by placing pieces of 2x4 lumber in front of the ramp were better understood, less people would take a chance doing this. I would be very surprised if the instructions for the plastic ramps did not include a warning to not modify the ramps in any way.
