    Default Shipping tires on rims to Regina

    Do you guys know the cheapest/accepting courier to ship to Regina, or will even accept? Weight is 75lbs and 33" diameter, 11" high each. Need it there by Friday around lunch time.

    Try Greyhound? When I bought rims from Ontario, the seller used Greyhound and they were cheaper than the big shipping companies.

    Greyhound was about $20/wheel last time I shipped a set to Vancouver. That was without tires though. Should be easy enough to send them as four separate packages with cardboard taped onto each side of the wheel.

    So Greyhound does ship them lol, depends who you talk to. FedEx does too for the same price, $60/tire.

    Kal Tire will ship them to another store for apparently free, so we'll see in a week if that holds true! I did buy the Nokians from them though, so probably for customers only.
