Hey guys

I have a set of rims that I'd like shipped from the West Coast of the US to Melbourne, Australia.

Have a quote for around $700 with USPS, but that seems a bit high.

anyone have any other suggestions?

Happy to examine sea freight as it's not urgent.

cheers

i work in imports mate. belive me road freight in the us to the port is crippling. 700 bucks is decent.

but contact sea freight. unless you have an account most of the big guys (dhl ets, fedex) etc wont touch ya.

just did a quick quote mate, if your importing 19 x 10 and they are stacked with no tires weighing no more than 5 kgs a wheel it would cost me 615 dollars to import them using dhl ets. plus tax and customs clearance if over a grand.

no worries mate at19 x 10 they where 40 something kgs volumetricaly. so they would charge by size not weight.

have a look at sea freight.

i dont know if they will help you but i use/used

ADM and global freight.

I looked into this a few months back. Cheapest I found for a set of 19x10 volks was about $480 (can't remember who it was from though, sorry!!) That was for sea freight but it sure beats some of the other quotes i was given (up to $1200!!)

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
