    Put a 2x4 in front of a set of Rhino's (which you can get at Wal-Mart, Pep Boys, etc).

    Home depot/Lowes/Menards. I don't think you will find a ramp that a lowered car will drive up unless you build it yourself or mod someone else's ramp.

    I got a set of nice plastic ones at northern tool for like $20. they have a low enough angle that my front lip clears it fine, but I've got a drastically shorter front overhang than newer soobs...

    and yea, as webcrawler said, use some 2x4s (or 2x6s) to give you that extra few inches.
