Who cares by the time the cinder blocks fail, you're down the road with your
new set of wheels and tires.

Finally, don't ever use a concrete block as a jack stand. Concrete is 
very weak in tension and will fail suddenly under a relatively small 
load. When loaded on the face of the block the concrete is in tension.
