You can make up a set of chocs that have a hole in the side and through it place a large wide cable tie and piece of cloth on the ali rim and secure them to the wheel. This will prevent them slipping. A large lump of wide joist made into a triangle slope or a metal one similar to the one in the spare kit. I have blocks of different sizes that I use. I trust wood on metal and it is more stable than axle stands. a piece of cardboard placed in the saddle of the axle stand can stop it slipping, I had a set that were dipped in molten rubber, but these were too good and someone else thought the same. I haven't seen anything like them around.

Many thanks for the tip. I've got some old Oak blocks that I use, I'm going to cut them to the radius of the 18"'s using my spare. Good tip about drilling through and using a cable tie.
There should be wheel chocks in the tool kit under the boot floor.

They, like my hair and waistline see to have been gone for years
Mine too. Didn't even realise they should be in there. Pity.
