Even many 3T $200 floor jacks don't have enough lift for some stock height SUVs like Jeeps, but around 17" lift will do for most vehicles, except that it's a heck of a lot more pleasant to work under one with more room to maneuver, including taller 6 ton stands.
For garage use, I'd only get this set for a compact car and only for wheel work not under it, but this is a nice size and weight to stow in a vehicle to change a tire roadside, going to be more user friendly than the average OEM factory jack. Might also help to have a piece of plywood with it for soft shoulders.
Even sedans need 14-16 lift and handle 2 tons which a basic $20 jack works. But I never like using a jack or stands near the threshold and opt for higher weight ratings especially in you are under the vehicle. Jack + stands at the min. Many stands are rated in pairs, beware of that too.

Thank you!
