I am getting ready to store my Z4 for the winter. I would like to have it sitting on the 4 jack pads ( on stands ) with the wheels removed . What is the best center front jack point to lift the front? also, the rear?
Thanks so much

It is no longer necessary to store a car "on blocks" by removing the tires. That was done during the WWII era, and even then was unnecessary. The car will not sag on its springs, and the tires will not rot or become "square". I have several friends who have very valuable classics that are mostly stored, and none of them puts their cars on blocks. If storing a car on blocks was of value you would see it touted in ads for classic cars.

I agree with the others.Never store a car with the suspension hanging.It was designed to have a load on it.
