FloTool 11909ABMI RhinoRamp Vehicle Ramp Pair - 12,000lb GVW Capacity Extra-Wide Review (2026)

Overview

The RhinoRamp 11909ABMI is a pair of molded plastic vehicle ramps from FloTool, sold under the RhinoGear brand, rated for a combined 12,000 pounds of gross vehicle weight. RhinoRamps is a long-running ramp line that shows up across auto parts retailers and home improvement stores, and this extra-wide version is built to accept wider tires than the standard-width ramps in the same family. The pair is meant for routine home garage tasks like oil changes, brake inspections, and getting a car high enough off the ground to work underneath the front end without a full lift or jack stands.

Climb angle and low-clearance fit

These ramps use a shallow incline designed specifically so cars with low front spoilers or aftermarket lowering kits can drive on without the bumper or splash guard scraping the base of the ramp, a common complaint owners raise about steeper, generic ramps sold elsewhere. That gentler approach angle is the main reason this line is popular with owners of sedans and sports cars as well as trucks and SUVs. The tradeoff of a shallower incline is a slightly longer ramp footprint, so measure the available garage floor space in front of the vehicle before buying if space is tight. Positioning both ramps on level, flat ground before driving up also helps keep the vehicle centered and reduces the chance of a ramp shifting partway through the climb.

Capacity and vehicle fit

At 12,000 pounds GVW for the pair, this rating covers the vast majority of passenger cars, crossovers, and half-ton trucks with plenty of margin, since most consumer vehicles weigh well under 6,000 pounds each side. The extra-wide platform is built to accommodate wider tires than FloTool's standard ramps, which matters for trucks and SUVs riding on larger factory or aftermarket wheel and tire packages. Buyers with narrower tires on a sedan will still fit fine, since the wider deck simply gives more margin for error when driving up. Owners with dual rear wheels or unusually wide aftermarket tires should still confirm clearance beforehand, since even an extra-wide ramp has a maximum width it can safely support.

Traction and storage

The ramps use a textured, non-skid surface intended to help tires grip during the climb, and the molded plastic body is designed to nest together for compact storage when not in use, which matters in a garage where floor and shelf space is already competing with tools and equipment. Being plastic rather than steel, the ramps will not rust the way a metal ramp can after exposure to moisture or road salt tracked in from a vehicle. FloTool backs the ramps with a limited warranty, which is worth registering the purchase for in case of a manufacturing defect.

Who it's for

This pair suits a home mechanic who wants a lightweight, easy to store ramp set for routine maintenance on cars, trucks, and SUVs, especially anyone with a lower front end who has scraped a steeper ramp before. It is not a substitute for a full lift when doing extended underbody work, and like most plastic ramps, it can shift on a smooth, sealed, or oil-slicked garage floor, so wheel chocks behind the rear tires are a sensible addition. Anyone regularly working on a heavier truck close to the rated capacity should also look at the higher-capacity RhinoRamps MAX version instead, which carries a 16,000 pound rating using the same style of shallow-angle ramp.
