I bought some BBS alloys recently which are located in Northern Ireland.

I need to sort a courier to get from there to Cardiff.
Can anyone recommend one? And what's the weight of 4 BBS 15inch alloys, size of packaging etc.

Any help would be appreciated.

Try Paisly Freight. They do deals for specific items, and 4 wheels is on there.

If they have tyres on them it's not so bad, get some cardbord lay on both sides and and get a roll of pallet shrink wrap and give them a few layers each then use Paisley freight.

If there are no tyres on them you need to pack them well, I have seen a few threads over the years with bent rims that have been dropped/thrown :(
How do you pronounce 'either'? I say 'either', but some say 'either'. Either is correct.

Ok thanks.
No tyres unfortunately! I'll have to tell the seller.
Thanks.

going through a claim now with paisley freight who used citylink to deliver an e36 bootlid ...what a fook on when the bitch who it was sent to isn't sending a pic of the damaged item with the packaging in the same pic as requested and decides it's easier to just leave me bad feedback on ebay instead !
