I tried it last night but the ramps just kept slipping forward and I couldn't get it up. I have rubber feet on these ramps and thought this would work, but no luck. Any hints for a first time 'ramp' owner?
How do I get my car up on ramps?

1) Be VEEEERRRRRYYYYY careful. Whatever you do, don't go too fast, and DO NOT drive over the far edge of the ramp. Especially on a low car, this can create ENORMOUS damage.
2) Slowly, and steadily drive up them. Have a friend stand on the other side to make sure you don't go too far.
3) Line them up perfectly - don't want to drive over the side of them either.
I personally use a floor jack and jack stands. Easier to use IMHO.

Maybe find a surface where the ramps won't slip?
I use Rhino ramps and have never had that problem even on slick concrete in the garage.
