Default Sending Rims to Australia

HI guys,

I am looking at buying some rims (maybe with tyres) and having them sent from the US to Sydney Australia. Does anyone have a rough idea on how much they would cost to get shipped with insurance for this:

1. 4 x 19's rims only
2. 4 x 19" tyres only
3. 4 x 19" tyre package.

Sorry about the really hard question but I just wnat to know if it is worth it or not. Thanks!

Roughly $200-$300 for water freight. Sent similar to Japan a year ago. Took
a LONG time to get there. Try to get a boxed air freight quote from fedex.
You can literally send them off your doorstep. I would not be surprised if they
were competitive w my old number.

all depends who you are buying them from and what their negotiated shipping rates are

From us, about $400 for wheels alone - we won't send tires mounted, too much hassle involved

Is that via air or sea?

So $400 would cover it. Do you use FedEx?
