Does anyone have some experience shipping tires in Canada? I'm looking at a few sets of used tires as far away as Ontario (I'm in Alberta).

What companies do it? How much does it cost? What needs to be done to get them shipped?

Thank you for your time!

 

u can ship them with ups or equivalent courier. just box them up .. or if it is rim/tire... u can try just covering the rims for protection. plug in some numbers into the ship calculator for ups to see different shipping methods and costs:

If you're not in a rush you can look into shipping them with Greyhound.

 

hmmm.... how much would a set of 4 tires & rims weigh? haha

 

I would check with Greyhound they might be cheaped but definatly slower. As far as how much they way set they on a scale and see!

 

If you want an example of a wheel and tire weight.
My 8.5" x 18" PIAA Sport Mesh rim and a 245/45/18 Michelin Pilot Sport A/S tire weigh in at 51 pounds per rim and tire.
