Default Jack stand question.

First time I've purchased a floor jack or jack stands, so bear with me....

I jacked the rear via the axle, then put the stands under the frame rails. when I lowered the jack, the wheels just set on the ground.
I was still able to rotate my tires and install my wheel spacers using just the jack, but when it comes time to install my lift I think I'll need taller stands.

How tall are everyone's jack stands & where'd you buy them?

Thanks!
