flat tire = have to carry at least 2 to 3 jacks
like I said this VOLTEX kit was a waste of money...
VOLTEX charges all these high prices on their parts... spend all this money on wind tunnel testing... BUT I cant even change a tire with their/ this kit
Im pissed

I guess what the OP is trying to say its that it should not require an act of congress to get the rear wheels off. I just ordered this kit but hopefully I wont have that problem since I will not be using the c-west sideskirts.

Jack the car up from the suspension arms, it will prevent the suspension from unloading.
Risky, as they are aluminum, but it is the only option , aside from jacking on the rear diff and pulling the wheels off once they are unloaded slightly.

We do this all the time.
But from looking at your pix, your setup is a bit different than ours. You have the C-West sides w/ Voltex kit.. the design is a bit different for sure..

Well you are running DMS coilovers, which have ALOT of rebound! That is bringing your wheel down farther than it would with the factory suspension. The rebound on some popular jdm coilovers like JIC, Zeal, Buddy Club, etc. have very little rebound, so your wheel won't go down as far while you jack your car up.
Long story short, when you jack your car up, with jdm coilovers with short rebound the wheels will lift off of the ground faster than they would with your DMS shocks.
I would just use (2) jacks as stated earlier. One for the body of the car, one for the susension arm or the tire.
