I have still never used a high lift for any off road tyre change, I avoid it at all costs. But no doubt one day there will be no alternative.
Rolled many tyres off rims and always managed to get the car to better ground or stabilize it using a winch ect and use the standard jack.
This was one example, rolled it off in the deep rut, winched it up out of the rut and lifted using the standard jack. Wouldnt go high enough so dug the tyre out about an inch or two.
Problem was with the fully flat tyre, I couldnt have even used a bit of wood under. It wouldnt fit, even with the jack at its lowest setting. Got there in the end.

Carry a wheel stand ? I think the products your referring to are for shoving branches etc if your stuck for traction, never used one myself But I use my highlift a lot as I roll a bead all to often and the problem with doing it off sliders bullbars etc is you need to jack the car to full flex before you get the wheel off the ground and with larger lifts can get pretty high
