Folks,

Is there a safe jack point under the front of the '98 'R50 where I can use a floor jack to raise both front wheels off the ground at the same time? 

For the rear I assume I can just place the jack under the differential (wood block/ foam to avoid denting), but what about the front?

I'm looking for the quickest method to change out all 4 wheels from summer to winter wheels/tires - I'm in a situation where I might need to do this multiple times a season. If there's a better way (i.e. raising the whole left side and right side instead of front and back), I'd love to hear it.

Thanks,

Pierre.
