914World.com _ 914World Garage _ Whats the best way to ship tires

Posted by: 736conver May 13 2004, 01:23 AM

I bought some tires from another party and need to find the best way for them to ship them, cheap would be nice to. Does any shipping company just pick them up as is or do they need to be boxed. They are going a short distance but not short enough for me to pick-up.

Thanks for any help

I used FEDX Ground, boxed if you can find one the right size.

Tirerack ships tires taped together in pairs.

I`ve recieved & sent tires U.P.S. & U.S.P.S. and they were only taped together (in pairs) no box needed.

I bought a set of tires from a guy in Fl.
They came U.P.S. bare for all to see.
Only thing they had was a address lable stuck to each one.
No problems.
Kinda hard to damage a tire in shipment.
