i sent my 15 / 8's to grimace.

use usps not ups.

at 50 pounds per tire they only costs i think 18.50 a piece tp ship.
ups wanted close to 200 bucks. fedex wanted 450 8O.
grimace could back me up on the miles cause i'm not sure. probably a good 400 miles.

it was a tire AND a rim. so i wasn't even sure if i was going to get them out. usps is the last place i checked and i was shocked when they told me how much it would be.
i just wrapped them with bubble wrap and tape. i shipped 2 out one day then shipped the other 2 the next day.
i'm sure if the mailman saw 4 tires to drag aroung he'd be pissed so i thought this would be better.

Yup from OKC to Colorado it's about 400 miles. The tires look good on my truck. Can't wait till I get to start working on it again. The new swampers will look good on those rims too :wink: .
