Is that a little dangerous that the whole side of the car is off the gound. There is only one support in the middle. How can I be sure that it will not tip over to the side where the tire is removed.

I had a strange problem when I tried to change my tires to snow tires. I had no problem chnaging 3 tires (driver side front and rear, passenger side rear).
