keron Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 interesting jacking points there....you cant use that type of jack in that place as it crushes the floor and lip where the oem jack is supposed to be used. i would check where the jacks were and see if theres any damage.....

charlton Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 That's how they done my tyres when I had all four done, except they went in from the front and back - not the sides. I've got a photo of it at home somwhere, I'll upload it later if I remember...

rob wild Posted February 29, 2008 Author Share Posted February 29, 2008 Can you confirm that these are the German ones not the Far Eastern ones? The rears say "made in Germany" and the front say "Made in China" but they all say "engineered for Europe" and have an "E" on them So i assume they must be ok then interesting jacking points there....you cant use that type of jack in that place as it crushes the floor and lip where the oem jack is supposed to be used. i would check where the jacks were and see if theres any damage..... Dont worry they used rubber blocks which fit on the jacking point and the jack to stop any damage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
