I just used waffle boards and a couple of lumps of tree (big sections of lower trunk). No risk of those breaking under the load and it doubled as a waffle test.

The waffles are useful off tarmac too. Whatever you use, remember that it needs to take the weight of over two tons of vehicle and that it will be messy, expensive, and potentially painful if the ramps fail.
