Well I have no experience of using the factory jack , in fact I don't think I've ever used one , but the theory should work as long as you take your time .

Have you got the "wheel install" tool in your car tool kit ?
I have tried using two at a time when I was changing fronts on my own , and it was a right pain , but maybe if you stood over them an forced the issue the shop would use them .
I also suggest wrapping your 19mm socket in duct tape to avoid scratches to the wheel ( kinda like the opposite to the old fuchs socket) .
Once they know you are concerned and serious , they'll probably just play along .
And call you "that wierd Porsche guy" !!
