My ramps are just like these. The rubber blocks on the bottom used to fall out of their pocket all the time. I used a zip tie through the hole in each one to hold it in place. Been like that for maybe 10 years.

Also, a few years ago when my brother was pulling his front wheel drive minivan up them he gunned it a bit and did a little burnout on one of them and melted the traction surface a bit (second Pic) View attachment 347394

I used something like this on some metal ramps that I had; they were too slick before. Krylon also makes a similar product.

I just ordered a set of those on Amazon. I have a set of the metal ones but in order to clear my air dam in the front I have to use some 2 x 6’s stacked in front and drive up on them first and then up the ramps. Looks like these might have a gentler slope.
Those raceramps that 1bad15 mentioned are nice. They have ones with longer approach ramps for lowered vehicles, plus the ramp part is detachable

Ingenious! I never would have thought of that! LOL My daughter did a burnout on the ramps too in her Kia Spectra! Then drove off the end before asking Dad for help!

Yup, it's real and not just an emblem.

It's only a tire/wheel package and different/stiffer suspension. Plus the black leather seats have the red piping and R/T logos. Nothing different with the engine
