Can't really advise you which ones to buy, but watch amazon.com for "used" ones. These are returns in excellent condition for good prices. I got a set of the 5.5 ft ones for $188 shipped.

I have a set as I load my 07 GT3 on a heavy duty skidsteer flat deck trailer. They are very light and durable. I even use them on gravel and they work fine.

very light and durable. Simple to use and store. I use the TR-5's to load my cars onto a 20' aluminum beaver tail open trailer. I think the trailer ramps are 5' and I add the TR-5's onto those. works perfectly.

Great product. They will also make whatever you want. i had them make me a set with the notch in them for the door and the ramp matched the door elevation and then a second ramp is flat on the ground so you pull up to lift the nose so it does not scrape the front spoiler.

Race ramps dealer reverse logic (Fred) has some proprietary race ramps that have a curve to the surface that works well

He is easy to deal with and has good pricing in my experience

Worth a call

Wouldn't know what to without them... I have various sizes and couldn't live without them. Fine product in every way. I think after you get a pair of the long ones and live with them for a season you wouldn't think twice about the price.

You could win a set if you attend a Hooked on Driving event. Great product
