I think the UPS store rapes people...I did the advan with tires in boxes for $157 insured and all to Illinois, 4 boxes.
He ate half the increase and included locking lugs too...no worries from me.
He's a super nice guy...he sent me pics of them on his SS...they're gonna look great.
Thanks again J...I really appreciate it. I didn't have the wherewithal to really dig in and find a good deal right now and I needed to figure this out ASAP because the PSS are bald on the back.

I remember those tires. I heard that you couldn't just go buy a set for your own car, you had to find someone else and they'd buy a set and install them on your car. And they you'd buy a set to put on their car. Then some big dude from a skeezy bar would do burnouts in both of your cars so you can watch the tire smoke.

You might be on to something. I would always ship my wheels myself. I would package them up and do the UPS payment from their site and just drop them off at a location. They might now be charging a markup in the stores. I shipped something small from the store the other day and and I figured it would be $7-8 and it was $11. Last time I go to the store to do it.
I've found this to be the case for UPS AND Fedex as well..

depends on my next living situation...if I have no storage, then maybe...
I'll buy 2 new rear tires and have it welded with time to spare and sell the set.
Could probably still get 1000 for them with new rear rubber.
