Default jacking question?

Can someone tell me if I jack the car up from the jacking point just in front of the rear wheel will it lift the whole side up to allow me to change both front and back wheels? Or is there another jacking point at the front?

cheers

There's a good picture of where to put axle stands etc on this link:

(Apologies if you are only planning to change a wheel with the scissor jack).

IIRC there is a jacking point towards the centre of the sill which will indeed lift up the whole side of the car.
