The regret, I do have (and that's somewhat harsh), is the inability to remove wheels, in which case, I'd raise the car on jack posts when off of the Kwiklift.

Just a question but didn't you get a bridge with your Kwiklift? I got one along with jacks and I have no problem at all with removing wheels when the car is on the lifts. The bridge is heavy but very stable.

I was contemplating the Bendpak scissor lift and am very glad I didn't get it for that reason. The regret, I do have (and that's somewhat harsh), is the inability to remove wheels, in which case, I'd raise the car on jack posts when off of the Kwiklift.

What do I prefer better if I can't have both the access to wheels and access to the underside? Access to the underside. There were other drivers for the Kwiklift such as I move frequently and can take the Kwiklift with me or store it while living overseas, however its a personal choice and just my view. Good luck and keep us posted.
