Do you have pics of the defects?

I went and looked at all the wheels and was mistaken, these wheels are in great condition. Nothing visibly seen but I did not go over with a fine toothed comb.

Shipping FedEx from 37421 (me) to Alexandria, VA (for reference) is roughly $300. I am not paying for shipping as this is still a deal when these wheels go for $150 a piece everywhere else.

HUH? :confused:

I've shipped wheels many times

It's only ~$105 for all 4 wheels (4 boxes, 20x20x10" box @ 30lbs each) via FedEx Ground from 37421 to 22304 (a residential address) for example

And if you had a FedEx account and/or shipped to a business address, it'll be even cheaper

I thought it would be too but I went to FedEx today and they are giving me the quote of $300 now. The box is 24x24x10 with wrap, packaging is roughly $25 a wheel and then shipping is a little over $55 a wheel. I thought it was nuts too but I don't typically ship big items. I tried UPS as well but they are more than FedEx.

By all means, if you know something I don't help a brother out. I'm just trying to get rid of some wheels so I can finish airride on my car. Not trying to rob anyone. :)

I think $400+ shipping is totally a fair price. You're just going to lose a lot of buyers trying to charge an extra $300 for shipping though

Like I said....those wheels weigh NO MORE than 30lbs boxed up and you need a 20x20x10" box for them, and it came out to $104.41 on FedEx's site, that anyone can use, for all 4 of them.

If I logged into my account though, it would've been cheaper

See if you can find some boxes, to ship them, from a local wheel shop. OR just buy them from a local storage/shipping place for cheap, and cut them down to the right size if need be

I hear you brother and appreciate the advice...I am honestly not so worried about getting these wheels shipped to do any extra leg work on them (i know i am being lazy).

That said...these wheels are Pending Sale
