I shipped a set of rims and a set of tires through DHL. I think it's slightly cheaper than UPS and Fedex, but not much. I had no problems, so I'd go through them again with no hesitation.

do you roughly remember how much it cost you to ship out? oh yeah bro dont think that i forgot about you. i'm still parting out my car. you'll have the sides if you still want them. sorry about the wait. almost time though if you still want them.

I think it was something like $26 per wheel, and $30 per tire. The wheels were packed in boxes, the tires were not (I just had them put the shipping sticker directly on the tire and had no problems).

UPS is cool but make sure you insure your shipment. UPS fvcked up on an order I was supposed to recieve by leaving the packages outside . Shipping cost me around 120.00 to ship my 20's to Arizona.

Fed EX, DHL or truck freight is cool also.
