Did they supply the boxes or did you package them yourself?

wow that was just so not helpful. h:


well check out ups and fedex's websites.

guess the weight of the rims in boxes. about 20lbs including materials and boxes. add another 20lbs if you have tires. then you can guess the size of the box. then you should have the price to ship out one rim/wheel.

its cheaper to send 4 packages, than to put them together and ship as one.

just to get an idea...from cali to texas via fedex: 40lbs, 24x24x10" box is about $20.

Is that 20 bucks or were you talking about the weight?

I shipped out 4 rims and it was like $18 each rim, I shipped them in their own boxes. It also makes it easier for you or the UPS guy to carry small boxes than one super giant one.
