Floor Jack?

So what's everyone's favorite hydraulic floor jack? With these having such a low clearance, and even lower if you've swapped the springs , what's a good one to consider?

I got this one. I use it to change out my winter/summer wheels. Well made and can easily lift our cars.

One day, I'll invest in some quick jacks. I really only jack up the M5 to detail the wheels and calipers once a month.

I wish there was an easy way to disconnect them from the drive train lol. Would be nice to Jack the car up and just have them spin freely while I while em down.
