    Was wondering if you had ever thought of manufacturing and selling that product to members and the BMW community?

    Insane pricing. I thought the ramps looked perfect until I saw the $1000 price tag. Really?

    Kind of explains why people buy Chinese.

    I use hockey pucks. They are dirt cheap and are grippy enough. It's always between the jack and whatever I'm jacking up. Just a cheap option out there!

    A little late response but the production costs are way higher than ECS jack pad adapters

    Someone gave me a link to one at Walmart. Think it cost me $6.39 including free shipping.

    I like the hockey puck solution. I need to pick some up. In the meanwhile, I also have squares of tire tread I use all the time. I took an old tire and cut up some squares of 10"x10" and have a few that are about 5"x5". I used a saber saw to cut them up. Do they put up a fight? Boy, do they! But yeah, they're really useful. Pro tip: after cutting, grind the wires back with a bench grinder. Too much work? Maybe, but my tire squares see lots of use.

    Hockeypucks "work" but the jackpad adapters have that raised rectangle that slots perfectly into the jackpad

    Vintage 42 gave me this link. $6.39 delivered from Walmart. It fit perfect but I did not actually even use it. I went jack to the jack pad.

    My 1st generation HF 1.5 ton aluminum floor jack has a round pad with a recessed center. It used to have a thin rubber pad that rotted and fell apart. Now, that round pad where the rubber was allows the squarish plastic jacking pad on my Coupe and my Mini perfectly, the plastic pad fitting into the recess. It notches in with a positive feel and won't slip without really working hard to do so.
    I have no need for these pinchweld rubber pads.
