You certainly can use ramps!

Not only are there low-angle ramps available commercially (here's just one example), you can make your own.

I got a 2x10"x12' board, cut it in half, then into 2' and 4' sections. Bevel one end of each section (at a shallow angle so your tire doesn't just push the ramp) and stack them using wood screws. Now you have a pair of low, wide, stepped ramps. If my lowered BMW with an air dam can get up on these, your Honda certainly can.
