Yes, as long as the jack locations and surrounding areas are solid. I store my GT on the jack locations during the winter to take pressure off of the tires. I don't know if flat spots in tires develop anymore, but I don't want to find out the hardway.

If your floor pans are rusted, I'd be cautious keeping them on the stands for extended periods of time. Safety First
