When the lift was first put in, I too was somewhat concerned about the tipping. I called the manufacturer and they said it was very normal, nothing to be concerned about and within design specifications.
To be honest, the tipping gets more noticeable depending on how I park the car on top. The further away from the post, the more noticeable the tip.
But I've also learned, WHO CARES.... I've had the lift going on three years and it's been solid as a rock. The manufacturer gave me the thumbs up. I had it installed by one of their approved installers and with the exception of a failed attenuator, it's been problem free.
No, the unit is not mounted to the wall. I would think the wall being some variation of dry wall and wood, etc. wouldn't do anything to help support a lift that is drilled into thick, thick, thick concrete.
Matter of fact, if something were to fail, I would much prefer the cars got damaged rather than possibly shaking apart the frame of my house.
But that lift is solid, solid, solid... Regardless of some marginal tip.
