    I have the big red 3 ton stands and the AC Delco 3 tons. Both hold my 4runner fine but I wouldn't recommend either.

    Get 6 ton stands because they extend higher. Both my 3 ton jack stands only extend far enough to hold the suspension uncompressed, but the wheels are still on the ground. This is fully extended. My car has no lift, with the stock 265 tires. Get the 6 ton stands.
