It slides across painted floors. It left an indellable mark on my garage floor.

I use this for the occasional oil change. Its a tight squeeze for me to get under the car with these ramps as I am a bigger guy (5′10″ 185lbs). It would make things a lot easier if they gave another inch or two of clearance.
From the company website ([...]) here are the specs:
Weight tolerance: 2,000 pounds per ramp or 4,000 pounds per pair.
Length: 35 inches
Width: 10.5 inches (tires should be 1 inch less than the width of the ramp)
Height: 8.5 inches total (lift height is 6.5 inches)
Incline: 17 Degrees
There are other products by another company (google search “race ramps”) that raises the car 8 inches or even 10 inches but they start at $200. Its hard to justify paying another $160 on top of the price of these Rhino ramps for just and additional 1.5 inches of clearance, but if you use these enough it might be worth it. Also the quality on the other brand far exceeds these Rhino ramps so you’re also paying for safety since you will be under the car with your life on the line if the cheap Rhino ramps fail.

This was a great investment and works perfectly when working any of our cars.
Minor Issue: Sometimes the no slip pieces of rubber fall out of the holes on the underside, so make sure those are snug or you may leave them behind somewhere!

I bought these today to raise my Chrysler minivan. They worked great, drove right up. The plastic worried me so I put jack stands under the frame for additional support. Belt and suspenders sort of thing…but probably overkill. Keep track of the rubber feet. They are not attached, but just slide in. They fall off when you store the ramps and you might not notice.

Sometimes they slip, most of the time they don’t. I’ve never had them slip on a front wheel drive. I bought these for our Miata, which is really low of course. The Miata is rear wheel drive. I use these on an old dry asphalt driveway. It’s relatively smooth. I’ve learned that if they slip, move to another spot a few inches away and they’ll hold. If they’re going to slip, they let go when you’re just up on them and though it’s a little disturbing, it’s not unsafe if you’re going slow. The rubber pads can come off, so you have to watch that as well. The steel ramps I used to use would also slip.
