Best way to ship wheels?

[Farzam]

I have a set of ce28n's I need to send from Raleigh, NC to Socal. I've never shipped wheels out before, and i'm just trying to get advice on the most cost effective way to package and ship them (all in 1 box or 2 separate?) as well as whoever would be the fastest and/or most reliable. I would really like to make sure the guy gets em in 2-3 days, but I would imagine the charges would be outrageous.

package them in 2 and 2 tape them together .. use gray hound.. it's cheapier .. fedex and ups are expensive

Problem with Greyhound is, you can only insure them for up to $300. Anything happens to them during shipping, it'll be on you.

I've had the best luck with Fed Ex. No damaged packages unlike UPS and USPS.

Greyhound doesn't give you a tracking number either, they almost lost my 180sx seats, almost.

It really depends on the size of the wheels, the weight, and the location being shipped to.

Using a 20x20x24 box to ship two 18x10's is usually around $60. If they have tires, expect it to be nearly double.

Best bet is to use the Fed Ex, USPS, UPS, and Greyhound calculators and comparing rates.

I've shipped wheels a few times through fedex and always have had good luck with no damage.. Always good pricing too, but I do have a fedex account.

Appreciate the advice, I guess i'll use Fedex.

It's 4 17x9.5 ce28n's without tires
