Speedy, you will have to become a bit creative, what I have done in the past is having the rear wheels (most weight) on the ramps and the front axles supported with jack stands under the ball joint right against the brake rotor.

But you have to be careful and put something underneath the frame (on both sides of the frame) to keep the car from squeezing you in case the jack stands slip..
