You could put them underneath the frame rails..but iirc ours are covered up by the plastic body panels.


Best place is oem pinch weld spot (this is where any shop will be jacking up your car from too if its on a lift)


Hell, you could even take a rag of some kind and put it between your jack stand and pinch weld to help protect its paint from getting scratched and scuffed. But if your jack stands are just the standard kind of u shaped ones without a large contact area, you still run the risk of bending the pinch weld.



Best option would be some kind of jack stand pad made for pinch welds. They really are a good investment.
