Default i need box/boxes

does anyone have boxes from their rims they dont need? or a big box that can fit 4 15 inch rims only?

i can buy it off of you or you can give it to me for free

also if no one has it, where can i get some locally without breaking my bank?

thanks

andy

FedEx is the cheapest by far.

Definitely DON'T USE UPS!!!

I had 3 sets of rims shipped to me by UPS and ALL of them came in flatspotted from rough handling. It takes a lot to flatspot a rim so this was definitely more than "Oops, I dropped it."

FedEx, but I work here so I'm slightly biased

Shouldn't cost you too much to ship 4, I'm thinking 75 bucks tops depending on weight. PM me if you need help

i dont think they'll be anymore than 20 lb each.

on the fedex calculator i did 20x20x12 for the dimensions.

the rims are like 15x6 or 7. so i think thats plenty big and yea it came to be that size.

discount?

Sounds like it'd be at most 16 bucks or so each plus fuel surcharge 4% and maybe residential surcharge if it's a home. And yes I get a great discount, thanks for asking
