    Pasak-pasak in a P18k tyre without verification for other leaks is a no-no. If you'll have to unmount the rubber from the rims, re-balance it esp if used as front tyres. After tyre repair, I always demand removal of tyres and dipping in the tub of water to check for small leaks.

    The notch of the jack head in the scissor jack is just to secure from not sliding. It is no different with alligator jack-head since it has wide notch and jack wheels allow movement when weight is shifted during jacking, the contact points will still be on tangent.
    The most safe way to Jack at the garage it is by using another jack or steady jack so if ever it slips or jack fails nothing will be damaged. Always read that F user manual (RTFM) if you're unsure.
