Default Wheel changing

Hi guys I need to take my wheels off to get them painted, I've got a set of the pucks to put in the jack points but where's a safe point for axle stands?

Be aware that supporting your vehicle on both front and rear suspensions on jack stands simultaneously is considered an unsafe practice.
