The ones I received from the last FP had great welds. No problem at all.
It can lift high enough to clear the tires off the ground.

Saying that the weight of a car isn't evenly distributed front to back is completely contradictory to the suggestion of buying jack stands rated for half the weight. Think about it: a front wheel drive sedan's front wheels are carrying the majority of the weight for the engine, transmission, battery, fluids, cooling system, and driver just to start. The rear is supporting the gas tank and spare tire with tools. I would make sure the pair of jack stands could support 65-70% (maybe even higher) of the total weight of the vehicle. Please be careful what you suggest to people wanting to crawl under their car!
Like should my car be under 3 tons or 6 tons?
Also my intuition tells me I'd need only one pair, lift front only or back only… so do you make sure the total weight capacity is less than half the car? Since half the car is still on the ground?
Make sure you get a pair that are rated for 65-75% of the total weight of the vehicle. Weight distribution is going to be higher towards the front of the car (engine, transmission, fluids, and everything else under the hood). Getting a pair of jack stands rated for only half the total weight is NOT a chance you should take.
Husky seems to have a larger base.

I really disliked the husky jack stands. The mechanism to raise and lower was really difficult to use.
