I just use a padded floor jack on the pinch welds...no damage and lots of strength..I don't understand the Steeda railes. Are they really mounted to the floor pan next to the pinch welds? Or am I seeing it wrong? I would think the double wall pinch weld line would be a much stronger jack point.

Yea the rails mount to the floor pan along the double walled pinch weld. The rails are strong and have not disappointed me with their ability to lift the car. Bonus of the rails are if your car is lowered, these will scrape if you encounter a speed bump rather than the body. Anyway, yea it's a good investment.
