SUBY3 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 What is the best way to ship a set of wheels with tires. I was thinking of stacking them with cardboard in between the wheels and wrapping with those large celophane rolls. Has anyone done this? thanks, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

froggert Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 i've shipped with just cardboard on the outside and been fine. 2 layers on the outside of the wheel. run the pricing through the shipper's calculator to see if it'll be cheeper to send individually or in sets of 2.

just_phil Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Cardboard on both sides, taped a few times. If you ship UPS, you'll have to send one tire/wheel as a package, two together will be too heavy. Also, there's a $5 per tire surcharge if not enclosed in the cardboard box.
