Default Car Jack questions

Hey guys, I am about ready to do my first oil change on the Z and change over from summer rims & tires to winters. Anyways I would like to get some feedback on the following pinch weld jack adapter which I know a lot of guys are using. How well does it fit onto the Z's pinch weld's? It looks like the pinch weld may not even contact the bottom of the groove. Is this safe? Do they have a flat bottom? I understand the 1006 size but what do they mean "to fit outside 2-7/8" to 3-1/4" " for the 1007 size? I was looking at the pinch welds yesterday and they don't seem very thick.

I have already purchased the following jack stands. If you zoom into the picture you can see that they have a notch to accommodate the pinch weld and there is a rubber saddle at the top. Will these be okay to place under the pinch welds?

I would like to be able to access all 4 jacking points (front, rear, sides). For the front, I'd probably have to drive up on some wood pieces first.
