Do I need to buy 3 ton or 6 ton axle stands for more security?
I would like them with an extra safety pin. Which height is the proper one? I am planning to work under the car for changing oil brakes etc. so thinking about minimum 40 cm to 60 cm height?

Does it matter which brand I choose? Is there a certificate check like the German TUV that classifies them more safe than others?

Currently I am looking at these ones:

Any advice is welcome, thanks in advance.

you will be fine with these.i have got them as well. they are pretty good and can be whizzed up on the ratchet by hand before lowering. they are not a bad set.
