                      We do have a set, but they wont clear 13" wide tires. They dont even like 11" wide tires

                        well if driving up them is the problem, just jack the diff and lower the ass centered atop each pocket of the ramp, aslong as its centered and level and ur not exceeding the ramp weight capacity u should be fine... its not like ur gonna be up there forever......

                          With the 11" tires the tires are supported by the sidewalls, my 325's would be sitting on the edges of it. Not a big deal anyway, the jackstands should be free pretty soon.
