I had similar issue on the passenger side with the oil lines which I had to make sure the rubber blocks were just slightly inside more than the drivers side to clear the lines.

You posted right before I could make my next post. I had exactly the same problem. I addressed it the first time by placing the ramps a little closer inboard but I didn't like it.
This time I disconnected the two clamps holding the A/C line next to the pinch weld and pulled the line out of the way. I also used a slotted "hockey puck" to sit right on the pinch weld.
That allowed me to place the ramps closer to the tires which was much more stable.
