If you plan on raising the car very often, a hydraulic floor jack is a good investment.

Edit: Do not use a scissor jack (or any other jack for that matter) to support the vehicle - use stands.
That makes sense.

I'll definitely be ordering a hydraulic jack, I'll make sure to spend what's needed for a low-profile one. And I wasn't referring to using the jack to hold the vehicle, just to raise it one side at a time in order for a stand to be placed
