Default Ramps.....help me out

What ramps do some of you have? I REALLY need a set of fing ramps because it makes everything so fing hard......I need somthing that will raise the front up high enough for oil changes, midpipe work,ect and is secure enough that I wont crush my damn self. Also ramps that are wide enough to accomodate wider tires in the future (295's ) I dont want to spend a sh*t ton. Where have some of you gotten your ramps/brands? Oh yeah and Im assuming with any set I will have to do the block of wood thing in front of them to make it up b/c of the bumper clearance correct?

In order to use jack stands you would have to have a jack. haha I live at an apartment and dont have any room to store that kind of stuff. Would be much better if I could use stands.

I bought my ramps at Pep Boys a couple of years ago, only cost about $25 or so. They are rated for 3000 lbs each and I have seen similar ones all over. I can drive right up on them without using a block of wood. My GT has the CDC Classic chin spoiler but is not lowered.

I also have the Rhino Ramps. They were about $50 at Autozone 1 year ago. I have 275's and they work fine.
