dg,
Are you familiar with the split rims on M715's? Do they fall into the good or bad category? Because like JR I take all the safety warinings on these suckers to heart and it really stresses me out just putting the wheel on the truck nevermind putting a tire on a rim. I'm always nervous I'll hit a pot hole or something and take some poor bystanders head off.
I treat them like a gun. Always assume its loaded, never point it at anything you don't want to kill.

Spread the weight out on those jackstands. I have a pair of brake backing plates that I use for dropping a pair of stands onto when I need a wider base on soft ground.
