Yes, place the jack stands under the jack pads at the locations indicated in the first photo in the OP.

You're welcome. The jack pads can be used in a variety of ways. If you're changing a flat on the side of the road, they are the lift points for the jack (the head of the OEM BMW scissors-type jack should mate up to the jack pad exactly). At the dealership or repair shop, they act as the lift points for the garage (4 point) lift. And as depicted in this thread, they can be used in combination with a floor jack and jack stands.

These front/rear center lift points work great. Those of us with xi cars certainly have an easier time getting the jack under the front.
Does anyone have a pic of the rear strut a few posters back mentioned on his 335d? I'm just curious. |

This be it... It's plenty strong enough to lift the rear of the car from (as long as the jack has good purchase on the beam!).

Can someone provide a few pictures of how regular jackstands mate up with the jack pads?
