hmmm I think I invented the dense foam thing or came up with it on my own anyway

I am talking so dense that it takes the weight of the car. I found that the foam deformation over the winter takes the shape of the tire (pumped to 50). You are left with cambered indents in the foam. This preferable to the tire deforming against concrete and sitting there in my view; think about it.

I have PS2s and dont want the risk of flat spotting them or causing belt problems, especially with camber. Is it possible to get away without foam: of course. Will flat spots be ironed out after a while: quite possibly. Why take the risk? Foam is cheap?

Another option would be to set the car wheel/tires that you dont care about. I am not so sure letting the wheels hang off of the springs via jacks is a good idea. It may change your spring set/rate by stretching them
