Default Axle stands

Morning i know this has also been done to death, but whats the best place for axle stands on the 997 gt3, bearing in mind the need to use the jacking points to rais the car in the first place, a two post ramp would be handy but i dont seem to have one at home right now.
I'm doing some suspension mods, sway bars, dogbones etc.

Thanks for anyones input.

PM sent! I think I want a set of these stands. I see you're local to me as well.

I have the low-profile AC jack- can these be used with that jack?

I just did a 4 wheel rotor change on my Outback Wagon and used the JackPoint Jackstands. Rust had flaked over the hubs and locked the old rotors on. The JackPoints were very secure and I had to resort to full baseball swings of a 2lb. Hammer to shake and brake the old rotors free. Chuck sold me the stands and the rotors and is helpfull. Top products and great service.
