I'm just wondering if anyone have any experience w/ this. how much would it cost ground to ship 3 tires ( no rims.. 18inch) from US ( virginia) to here calgary. or would it be cheaper to ship to boarder and pick it up, either way approx how much$?

thanks

why ask us when you can literally goto UPS or FEDEX and find the actual amount. canada post won't ship anything that big usually. The shippers always charge a fortune though I know a few companies online that sell rim/tire combos with free shipping to canada.

I've never ship anything this big and have no idea what kind of dimension/weight for the boxes that has to be shipped, figured someone here might have some actual experience. Also can you point me to those companies with free shipping?

thanks

rim/tire combos in 17" ended up costing me around $1100 USD shipped. Fedex is likely the usual way to ship tires though, normally anywhere from $100-$150 for a full set depending on where they are coming from, duties, etc.
