Does anyone have any experience of sending a set of wheels using a courier?
How much would I expect the postage to cost and how do they have to be packaged?

How much are they worth? How big?
Paisley freight are pretty good... Can send a set of 18s with tyres for £35.... If you want to insure for £500 add £20 to that
Cardboard on the faces then bubble wrap

Cheers, it's 18's with tyres so £35 sounds pretty good.

I normally tie wrap them face to face and pallet wrap the pairs.
Costs about £25 for 15s so 18s would be more, £35 sounds about right.

I'm about to use Paisley Freight for some 19's with tyres. £41 is the best I've found from a reputable company so not bad at all

I was going to use paisley freight but considering they are specialists the reviews they get in eBay are horrendous
