I’m going to say ‘no’, but not positive about it. I have an older set of Rhino ramps that I no longer use, as I couldn’t get either of my current cars up on them. I switched to Race Ramps, which have a longer ramp (which you can move out of the way once the car is up. I no longer use them either, as I now have a QuickJack to lift the whole car at once, and a lot more clearance underneath.

These are the ones I purchased, they have a 10.8 degree angle:


They work fine for my Lexus and Jaguar (which has even lower clearance).

they look pretty much the same as what I've been finding, but more of a ramp, which seems better,

These are the ones I keep finding all look about the same and same length, I may just have to buy these and make a ramp out of wood if they don't clear the bumper

What you posted doesn't look the same at all... nor does it look like it would clear.

Show the link to any local shops and I'm sure they'll have that style in stock. I've used it on both IS' (17 and 22) without any issues.

Yeah, the one pictured in post#5 is too short, the ramp will be too steep. The ones in the link in post #4 should work, as well as the ones I posted.

I can tell you that these don’t fit, I just slid them under the 23 IS350 FS RWD to check. Size 11 for scale.

Yeah, look like my old Rhino ramps, too short/steep of a ramp.
