I went to ShipNex and UPS websites and the lowest quote I was able to get for shipping 4 boxes weighing 28 lbs each (1 wheel per box) is about $150. UPS Ground was $276. FedEx ground shipping was even higher. These can't be right because when I tried ordering the same set of wheels from ECS Tuning, their shipping charges were only about $30 (the wheels were no longer available, so they had to cancel my order). I found someone who has a set of the same wheels in unopened original boxes, and I have to cover shipping charges. $150 minimum for a set of wheels kind of kills the deal.
What am I doing wrong? If a set of wheels alone cost $150 to ship, a set of wheels/tires would run $300. That can't be right? What shipping method do wheel & tire vendors use?
