I use this method for jacking all of my cars, except for the relatively rare occasion where I specifically need to remove only one tire. I think a car stays a little more stable when lifted more evenly as well. Always with hockey pucks on the jack pads.

4 - Question, not Camaro specific. When lifting both rear (e.g. to rotate tires side to side) are just front wheel chocks safe enough to prevent the car from rolling?

With jacks, I block ahead of both front wheels and behind at least one of them (usually both). With ramps, only in front mostly because the ramps have their own stop blocks built in. I have a variety of bricks, cobblestones, and what-not that have enough grip on my concrete driveway that when I occasionally forget to remove them they'd get driven over before they'd slide.
Thanks for the jackstand pad thought. Those won't fit any of mine, but I'm sure I can come up with something similar that will.
