Mentor3 years agoUPS is probably the best. Go to their website to see the requirements for shipping.
Get the best price for UPS with a free PirateShip account .

OP3 years agothanks for the info. can you ship them through the ebay system of shipping as I don't see any options for how you would describe the package telling them you are sending a tire. I have not heard of pirateship so I will need to look into that.

Mentor3 years agoYou can ship through ebay, but that puts ebay in the middle if there is a problem, which rarely works out well, plus ebay quoting is often inaccurate for UPS or FedEx.
Do a search for tire shipping and you will see UPS is the most recommended and also will find information for proper packing/wrapping and labeling for shipment. Note that UPS considers tires "irregular shaped" so make sure that is selected in the area you input weight and dimensions.
