Here is what the full wheel & tire looks like in boxes (which I then bought bigger boxes to combine them into): If they’re asking for money or saying no, you can often go dumpster diving and just fetch them yourself if you feel like being aggressive about it. If this isn’t an option, then head to a local grocery store and ask if they have any boxes lying around – they’ll typically give you all sorts of boxes they’ll give you for free, or you can even look in the dumpsters behind big business like this and they’re full of cardboard boxes used to ship items that are then tossed out nearly daily. The earliest light-alloy wheels were made of magnesium alloys. Although they lost favor on common vehicles, they remained popular through the 1960s, albeit in very limited numbers. In the mid-to-late 1960s, aluminium-casting refinements allowed the manufacture of safer wheels that were not as brittle. Until this time, most aluminium wheels suffered from low ductility, usually ranging from 2-3% elongation. Because light-alloy wheels at the time were often made of magnesium (often referred to as "mags"), these early wheel failures were later attributed to magnesium's low ductility, when in many instances these wheels were poorly cast aluminium alloy wheels. Once these aluminium casting improvements were more widely adopted, the aluminium wheel took the place of magnesium as low cost, high-performance wheels for motorsports. There are one- two- and three-piece forged wheels. Every piece is originally an alloy billet, which is further transformed into a wheel, in cases of one-piece forged wheels, or into a wheel part in cases of multi-piece wheels.

box as shrnk wrap causes jams on the converyor belts - Anything that is found to be shrink wrapped will attract a retrospective surcharge or returned to sender at additional costs. If there is any space left inside the box, this can be filled with additional bubble wrap, polystyrene loose fill, or screwed up newspaper. This article needs additional citations for verification.

How to Package Wheels (with Tires) for Shipping:

There are some key rules to ensuring you get your wheels in good condition and choose the correct service for you: Rims must be boxed, or wrapped in cardboard and cannot be sent just using shrink wrap or bubble wrap. Once boxed, the outer box must not be shrink wrapped, as this snags the conveyors, plain cardboard only.

Q. Who is the best courier for alloy wheels? A. We deliver alloy wheels and tyres on the next working day, throughout the UK mainland. If you book before 17:00, we will collect the next working day. If booked after 17:00, they will be collected a day later. When booking over the weekend, collection will be on the Tuesday, assuming that the Monday is not a bank holiday, in which case, collection would be on the Wednesday. We deliver alloy wheels and tyres on the next working day, throughout the UK mainland. If you've spent hundreds, or perhaps thousands, on expensive alloy wheels and tyres, then you need to know the courier you choose will deliver them to you in good condition. secured with parcel tape to hold it in place. Attaching cardboard to each rim will help prevent any damage to them during transport. Whilst some locations such as areas of the Scottish Highlands, Isle of Wight and Scilly Isles are available, they will attract a remote area surcharge.When processed using best practice methods, low pressure die casting wheels can offer improvements in ductility over magnesium wheels and any cast aluminium wheels, they remain less ductile than forged magnesium. Then get a medium or large box depending on the dimensions of the wheels ( this 18x18x16 is perfect for two 18×8 wheels, for instance) and place two wheels in each box, with plenty of cardboard between them for padding so the wheels don’t clank together. Fill the empty spaces of the boxes with old magazine or newspaper crumpled up so nothing shifts. In Summary To calculate the average price, we add up the cheapest daily prices of the last 90 days and divide by 90. Cross-shop FedEx, UPS, and DHL – be sure to use a FedEx & UPS account to get savings for an online quote. In the past I’ve found FedEx cheaper typically, but sometimes it’s the reverse for reasons I can’t begin to understand.
