Hello. I'll be swapping to my winter wheel setup in a few weeks. I've had the car a couple of months (2017 WRX). Just bought one of those 1.5 ton racing jacks from Harbor Freight, and am wondering what the recommended option is. I also bought a pair of jack stands just in case. I've read some people have bent their pinch welds using a floor jack on the 4 corners. Another issue is getting the jack under the front center jack point for some jacks. Additionally I have no clue where that front jack point is. The picture in the owner's manual is like a pencil sketch. What methods have people used succesfully?

Thanks. Since I only have one floor jack, I should probably just buy one of those pinch weld adapters to be safe? Jack up the car, swap the wheel and then repeat on each corner? The only thing Im afraid of is fudging the pinch weld and then if I ever do need to swap a wheel on the road the scissor jack wouldnt work because of a bent pinch weld.
