It Sure did and it has held up. I thought the ramps might cut through it but
they haven't and they work great.  My garage floor is sealed and is very
slick.  The ramps leave an imprint in the matt, but it goes away by the next
time I use them.  I actually got the ramps for my camaro, so much heavier
than the B.
