Jack Stand Height
Now I know the x1 isnt a real SUV so would regular 3ton jacks be good? Or would I need the SUV height jack stands? I want to take off tires and do oil changes but I dont need it sitting 3 feet in the air.
Whats everyone using? 11-16" or 12-21" stands? Thanks! |

I'm not sure the actual measurement but know the one off of a 3-series is too short. I just picked up a jack off of an X5 with a blown engine on Craigslist and that works great.

Clearance for 3 series is about 5 inches it seems, my x1 was closer to 8 inches, so probably something that has at least an 11" clearance to start, a 20" clearance would be more than sufficient.
Going to pick up a taller one today and see what that is like. |
