Depends on what you want them for. Just for storage with the wheels off or high lift to work under it. What sort of ground you will be using them on as they are normally meant to be on concrete if you are on tarmac some types will sink into it. You can get types with wide bases like these Halfords ones which are better on tarmac https://www.halfords.com/tools/garage-workshop/axle-stands-trolley-jacks/halfords-2-tonne-axle-stands-657115.html

Posted on 24/06/2020 23:13 by Ph1lTurnerHi, just to raise the caravan to give the wheels a rest since been in 1 place for a long time. Raise enough to be able to turn wheels.
Caravan is on gravel, but will put the axles on concrete pavement slab.
Thanks
Phil.

Same use and ground as mine, I use standard 2 ton 'pyramid' shaped with 30mm holes distanced along its centre post sitting on pavement slabs.
I leave the wheels on and they have been just off the ground since last October. I have always overwintered with the stands under the axle.
