Lots of drummers are taking their rack toms and putting them in snare stands, instead of hanging them off cymbal stands or directly from the top of the bass drum. DW's 9000 Series Heavy Duty Tom/Snare Stand is designed to support the weight and size of heavy toms.
Neoprene pads cushion the shell from the metal basket arms while minimizing shell resonance. The offset basket can actually be adjusted further or closer away from the center of the stand, making positioning extremely easy.
The base can be set extra-wide so the drum won't accidentally fall over, no matter how large or heavy it is.
