wheel import from the US

Have done a search on the forum but come up with nothing on this subject, but I'm sure I've read about this before.
What is the best way to import/ship 4 wheels from the states. 15" x 11lbs in weight each.
No they're not available here.....
Yes they are custom made.....
Yes they are exspensive....
Yes I really do need them:P
any help is appreciated
cheers

Sorry, I know you said they are not available here, but if they are custom made, maybe you can get someone out here to make them.

Have you talked to someone like Circletrack wheels in Sydney?

I know they don't make centres, but if you can get a machine shop to make the centres for you, Circletrack can make the rim in anysize you want, Simmons wheels would be similar I would have thought too.

Ask for Daryl. These guys import loads of wheels from the states and have lots of links to people over there. He's a friend of mine and is who I am going to get my import wheels from. He can get almost anything. Try him. You could also try some of the hotrod and custom shops.

Just stick 'em on UPS and pay the bill.
Prices vary depending on how fast you want them.
Make sure that your contact details are clear and correct on the boxes, and that the value is easy to find on the paper work.

Hi

Good old US mail is the best bet, Ive found UPS to be expensive in the past. If they are that expensive why not look at Simmons wheels?

UPS or TNT on the slow boat

Americans dont know where there local Post Office is....

i used UPS about 8yrs ago. i dont know why anybody would want to pay more to an importer on top of what is going to be a many dollars anyway.
