I have mine mounted on these tripods I got on Amazon. Never had any issues with them. I zip tied the cables to the poles because I have cord chewers. (Sorry for any strange formatting, I'm on mobile)

I ordered these: https://www.amazon.com/Fovitec-StudioPRO-Light-Compatible-Carrying/dp/B01MFG14ZT/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1513889095&sr=8-3&keywords=tripod+htc+vive

And have been pretty fine.

These stands work for the Index Base Stations.
