The front lift point is to far back for most low profile jacks to reach making it pointless. Low profile ramps and a good service jack are the way to go.

This is the floor jack i have. It's a bit more than you'll spend at HF but was worth it for piece of mind to me.

I also pick up this extender to get the car high enough to max out a set of esco jack stands.
