How to ship tires'?
Hi, I have just sold my RX8 tires on eBay and want to know what's the best method to ship them? I mean where do I find the boxes for them? Any idea? Thanks

Agreed, I shipped some wheels/tires to Wheel Collision Center once without boxes.
If you want boxes, I bet local tire stores will have some they're throwing away—probably be happy to give 'em to you.

I have shipped at least 10 tires through UPS online. I shipped each tire separately, each with their own shipping label, each w/o a box, and classified it as oversize 1 packaging. However, because there is no box, UPS always does a surcharge of about $6 / tire after the fact -- so you may save a little if shipped in a box. When all said an done, it costs between 25-30 / tire to ship via UPS.

You want to properly wrap the tires and rims. don't ship them like this.

Tires.com, discount tires, and any tire company usually ship it without boxes on them. Just put those shipping labels on the top of the tires and your all good to go. It is safe to ship them without boxes. Use Fedex or UPS ground for cheaper shipping costs.
