I have 2 sets of rhino ramps. drive up on the front ones, then jack the rear up with a floor jack and slide the other 2 under the rear wheels. let it down on the ramps and it sits level and gives enough room to do oil changes and whatever else you need to do. even makes waxing/polishing the lower parts of the car easier.

Question being . . . isn't the plug on the back of the oil pan, so why wouldn't you lean the car back by putting it on ramps? Just a question. the only thing I can think of is putting a jack under the driver's side to tilt the car to the plug side.
