If you search the forums though I saw a post a while ago of someone who did a bad job placing their jack stands and the car bent a bit.

He is correct, the post is here with pics of the damage in the forum entitled Safely Jacking and Supporting Your BRZ/FR-S :http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showt...t=10111&page=4

I am cheap and patient and only need to work on one wheel at a time anyway so I use the oem scissor jack just left of the leftmost notch, raise the oem jack to full height which has the tire off the ground and allows you to just slide a 3 Ton HF Stand on its lowest setting underneath the other notch. Stable too. no problems, i watched and listened carefully.

This product is the shit tho, it lets you use a floor jack on the pinch points! Sold out tho https://www.flyinmiata.com/fm-jack-adapter.html
