Need Suggestions on a portable low jack

I have my car lowered and I find that my oem honda jack is pretty useless. In order to use the craftsman jack I have, I am forced to drive my car onto wood 2x4's to create enough space to fit. Now, I was wondering if anyone happened to know any jacks that have low clearance and could easily fit under and jack up my car. The reason being, I would like to be able to carry a jack like this in case I ever need to use my spare on the side of the road. Any recommendations would be appreicated and alternative suggestions too.

I've never seen a low nose jack thats "small". Most of the ultra low ones are the NASCAR style quick jacks, they're 100+ bucks and the base of them has to be long, because the jack plate sticks out beyond the jack trolley, which is why it can go so low. I got a regular Craftsman trolley jack under my car, and robbclark's car (which is lower than mine, tires even w/ the fenders) without issue. Neither of us have side skirts though.
