What is the best way to ship rims? Packaging and estimates are appreciated as well as suggestions. Thanks.

 

Either UPS ground in separate boxes or (not sure if this even exists anymore) you used to be able to send stuff via greyhound bus (if the bus has room). That was before 911 though last time I did it though.

 

Here is the best way to ship rims, take flat cardboard and lay it ontop of the rim, then cut it to the rim size in a circle.
Repeat for the other side.
Then use packaging tape and seal around the edge of the rim.
Leave the sides (the part the tier goes on) uncovered.
The shipping label will go on the cardboard.
This will protect the part of the rims that you see.
If you box them and you dont package them so they dont move around inside the box then the box will come apart.
Trust me, this is the best way to ship them.
Once they are ready to go take them to Kinko's and ship them via FedEx, you will have three options, Ground, Home Delivery and Express, you dont want Express, big $$$ because that is overnight and 2-day.
Ground and Home will be your cheapest options.
Depending on where they are shipping from and going to it will take 3-5 business days.
