Jacked up with factory jack, the darn thing is too low to fit the floor jack under it at the proper jack point.

I used to jack cars up on the rear axle, transfer case, or differential, but I was too chicken to do it on the Boxster.

By the way, what's the deal with the foam encasement around the jack!!?

I had to use a hammer to bang the foam protecter off .....

I was really surprised to see how much tread wear goes on, on the inside edge of the tires. Pretty impressive difference to outside.
