I have Rhino ramps 11909. My F56 is lowered probably over 1cm by now. The factory front splitter does make contact with the ramp, I built an extension with some wood and run a lag bolt thru to fasten them together.

Mine is lowered 1 inch (2.5 cm) with a Schnitzer splitter.

I just ordered a set of 11909 from Amazon, can always return them!

I’ve used ramps before, and if you’re lowered by 1 inch with a splitter, you want to pick something that’ll give you enough clearance without scraping. I’ve found that some ramps can be a bit too steep, especially with a splitter, so I’d suggest looking for a set with a more gradual incline. As for the whole "Rhino Ramps" thing, it’s a bit strange. A few different brands are using that name, but they all seem to do the job well enough. If you’re in New Zealand, you might want to check out car ramps nz for a solid range that could work for your setup.
