Default The best way to get wheels from Melb to Perth

Hello

Can anybody recommend an affordable courier to get four XR6 wheels from Melbourne to Perth. Im not sure exactly how much they weigh, but im sure someone would have an approximate.

Thanks everyone!

Yeah Ive tried quite a few... most wanting a certain amount spent every month and requiring an ABN. Quite a few places also quoted over 200 and 300 which is pretty steep for me at the moment, so Im wondering if there are any cheaper

Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to wait that long because I bought the wheels off eBay and needs to post them asap. I really appreciate the offer though, thanks mate.

Hello Andrew. Its Heathmont, 3135, and for Perth it's Wembley Downs, 6019, but pretty much anywhere in Perth is good. Thank you very much.

EDIT: also I found out they are approx 11kg each.

Cheers for the replys guys!
