    Courier Help?

    Anyone know any good couriers? Im buying 5 wheels & tyres (Nurb VXR ones) off a private seller in scotland (looks like about an hour out of edinburough). Just looking for a cheap courier (thats reliable) dont care so much about delivery times so can be sea mail, dont mind (id like to get them asap but dont wanna spew out $$$) ive tried aus post and they quoted around 200 for a package self wraped at around 20-25kg (this is a guess not sure how much 18"s with tyres would roughly weigh)

    Any help would be much appreciated, thanks guys/gals!Click here to enlarge

    Fast Lane International Couriers. Got my front splitter here for $100 when Fedex was quoting $600+, has to be worth a try.
