There are rescue tools out there that people have used. The inflatable pillows start out at about 1/2 to 3/4 thick and use air.

Without a quality alarm or a locked garage it doesn't matter if you have locks or slammed! A knowledgeable thief with just hand tools will take your wheels in less than 8 minutes, unprotected. I love my halo alarms, once set if anyone spends more than 30 seconds by your car the alarm starts chirping, unless they're gone the alarm goes off shortly after....Gary

My car is garaged so I don't have to worry about this. I would never park my car on the street overnight for an extended period of time.

My low pro floor jack almost fits under my car at the front jack location, but i can reach the rear side location no problem, when I lift high enough the front wheels are off the ground too so if you think your car is to low think again.
