changing wheels yourself with a Jack

hi guys, im planning to change my 4 wheels myself with the jack that came with my Audi.

Is this bad for the frame of the BMW z4, as the BMW didnt come with a jack?

in general, the jacks that vehicle manufacturers supply aren't that safe. i would recommend you go out and purchase a good low profile jack (probably 2-ton at the least).
