Question How do you set the 996 up on jack stands???

How do I set my GT3 rear up on jack stands???
Specifically, where do I position the floor jack so that the car is balanced and both wheels lift up at the same time???

Once the wheels are up, where do I position the jack stands???

Do I want the traditional jack stand that has the U shaped receiver at the top or do I want the flat top stands with the rubber cushion??? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I have ordered the dk20 jack with the pad so I need to know which type of ac jack stands would be best to order...

msindi is infamous around these parts
On the TT there are arrows on the side skirt (two little triangles) that point to where the jack should go...
