I've got a set of car ramps I want to use to get under the Bongo to have a look round at a coolant weep and see which pipe it is from. The problem is that the ramps I've got aren't quite wide enough for for the width of the tyres. Can I still use them safely without damage to the tyres and have about 10mm overhanging the ramps on either side? There are no side walls sticking up from the ramps so should be nothing there to damage the tyres but I just want to check what people think

Great stuff, I'm going to pop some axle stands under there too to be double sure

They will be fine, I go up a standard 2 ton pair of ramps with 295/70/17s on my Navara
