BMW M3 Forum (E90 E92) - View Single Post - sounds stupid but how do you use jack stands properly

Wendall · 02-11-2013, 08:58 AM

I am wondering how you are supposed to jack a car up (using adapters in the rectangular jack point) and then place the jack stand. Are you guys using the jack stand or jack in a location other than the jacking point? I know this sounds stupid but I dont want to risk jacking the car up on at point with insufficient reinforcement.
