I have found so far all I need to is drive the car up on a set of Rhino ramps. This is plenty of room for oil changes. The car is not very low so it is easy to get under. By the way, an oil change on this car is a 10 minute process, literally - very simple.
The first time I use the jack points on the F30 will be swapping on the winter tires. At only 9,000 miles I have not needed to change brake pads, rotors, etc.

I've got 4 homemade ramps that I had to custom make for my S2000. Store bought ramps were too high to fit underneath the car. I'll be using them for things like oil changes and etc. They were very simple to make, a few 2x10s (4 foot and 3 foot) bolted together with ends beveled. Not pretty but they work very well.
Like you, I'll be using the jack points to swap out the summer tires for winter tires.
The hockey puck sounds like a real good idea. Thanks. I'd never have thought of it.
