Hoosier's R6 works great in the 235/35 and 315/30 19 combo.

yes depending on which jack I'm using. u need a long low profile jack. I don't being that one to trk. hard to read it if car is very low

however the end of the cross. ember is where I put jack stands.

of course there are meant right ways to get the *** in the air lol

I don't jack on wet sump engine car, or dry sump with dynamic motor mount, but if I has the regular mount, I do jack up right on the split case seam.

Ultimately it's all not a big deal unless you are constantly jacking up the car then yes you don't want to be using the engine I agree

yup
