I used Fed ex to ship to rear z06 wheels and tires. Was 50 bucks for the both. 25 each. I just put a layer of cardboard to protect the rim and sidewall of bothsides of the tires, and I left the tread part of the tire exposed. Real easy. Now if i had some HRE wheels or something like that id box them better.

Did you have to deflate them?

Also, is this something you can just drop at any fed ex location? Or do you have to go to the terminal?
