shipping tires

[MTChevy]

for those of you that have mailed off tires, what have you found to be the best cheapest way? I notice if you type some stuff on UPS.com you come up with around 100 bux a tire, crazy. but like summit or somewhere like that you can get shipping costs of like 10 extra bux a tire. What have you all figured out?

Try DHL Ground. The only problem is, DHL SUCKS!

I bought 4 35's mountd on H2's on eBay. The guy wrapped each one in plastic and shipped them as individual packages. It was about $25/tire. Problem is that I can't remember if it was UpS or FedEx. either way it might work for you.

thats how i got my tires, they were wrapped in plastic, but all in bulk, and it was like 90 bux, i believe it was truck fraight. Not completely sure, because i wasnt home when they dropped them off.

i have got 2 set of 36's off of ebay, both were shipped ups and all i had them do was tape the address label to the tire, shipping was less than 25 a tire.

If the tire doesn't fit in a box. UPS charges an additional $15 per tire handling fee. When I sold and shipped my 31's it ended up costing me 180 bux. I planned on 125 because they quoted me $31 per tire, but they forgot to mention the handling fee.
