But don't check the oil level with the car tipped up on the ramps. Drain the old oil, change the filter, put the drain plug back in, put in a little less than 5 quarts of new oil, back the car off of the ramps onto level ground, let the car sit for a couple of minutes, then check the oil level and top off as necessary.
Yup, no problem with oil changes...besides, OP, how are you going to drive the rear wheels up onto 6" ramps without hitting the side sills of the car (you are lowered).
