Lew ... I seriously looked at them... then I took a step back and thought:
"Jackstands...they don't move, they don't talk, they don't cook... they just sit there for a while."

The car is lighter than any of the generic spec's. Why, then would I pay several hundred dollars for a set?

When you wrap the heads with cloth, as we all do, what does it matter how the tips are finished.

Found a nice set at Home Depot with concave tips... fits the tubes fine.... about $20 a pair or so. Put the rest of the $$$ in something that moves.

Now, about the jack those guys have....hmmm
