How to keep wheels from 'falling,' when jacking up car. 200

I need to raise my car up to do some work and I would like to be able to put blocks under my front wheels while the car is raised as I think that it adds to the stabiltiy of a jacked up car. I was wondering if I should use spring compressors to keep the springs from stretching out or should I just jack up the car under the whole wheel assembly? Can I put on a spring compressor with the wheel still on?
I know you all know what I am talking about; you can jack up the car a foot but the wheel will only be a couple inches off the ground...

Thanks
