Cheapest safe way to ship wheels

Hey guys,

I'm trying to sell some wheels and, of course, I'm finding that shipping is super expensive. UPS is asking around $275 with insurance; Gray Hound would even be at around $200. Anyone know of anything safe that's cheaper?

Thanks!

I used UPS, but break them into 2 packages of 2 wheels each. That will keep you under limits for weight and size. I shipped mine from Seattle to Orlando for $250, with tires on them.

Cool, thanks guys. Turns out I don't need to ship them. A local buyer is taking them tomorrow
