You technically can lift by the pinch welds but they do not hold weight well and can be bent and damaged easily. They are the most fragile pinch welds I have seen on any car.

If you land the car on jack stands, be sure the weight is distributed evenly on both sides or else the welds will bend or damage with the weight sagging all on one side.

My observations is that these pinch welds are three sheets of cheap metal pressed together to form the rocker area. It's a horrible design. I have seen cheap Hondas with better pinch welds than that.

As most mentioned..jack the car on the mentioned jack points...look it up on the DIY section some where. If car is too low to clear your jack, roll it on thicker blocks of wood or ramps to give clearance.

Good luck.
