I need to make a decision soon and you are not helping with your expensive taste in wheels.
I like them but if they were much more than the Kiwanis I'd still go that route myself.

They are not terrible if I remember correctly. I want to say they are heavier than factory though.

So I am shopping around Amazon because Prime day ahs a special for Amazon Visa card holders. $30 off any prime purchase of $150. So I planned to buy a low-pro jack. But I found these things. I may order a pair and see if they'd allow enough room to allow my normal jack in the front and sides.

You are correct. I can't get my regular jack under the front or sides. This past oil change was a nightmare. I jacked from the diff in the rear. Got 1 stand under the rear side panel. Then lowered the car and jacked the other rear side panel. That gave me enough room to jack the front side panels while slowly sliding the stands since I only own 2.

So my original plan was to buy that pittsburg low pro steel jack. But now I am curious if I can spend half as much for some mini ramps allowing me to fit my standard hydraulic jack under the sides and front.

Mine is too low for my low profile jack. Not least of all because the jack points are so far inbound on the car. I drive it on the a couple pieces of 2x4 then I can get it under. Had the same problem st the shop today to smoke it on the lift. Need 2x4 to get the arms of the loft underneath.

And I'm not exactly all that low either. Though I'm planning on raising it up about 3/8 all around but waiting until my spacers arrive on Friday to fit them first.

Save $40, a couple of 2x12's and you can have your own set.

I don't have a circular saw nor know anybody close with one. I taught myself how to use power tools for as scary as that sounds.
