Does Anyone know the cheapest company/method of shipping a set of wheels from Japan? I've got a guy that can get the wheels for me, but I'm having a tough time finding a reasonable price for shipping.

Thanks in advance.

Yeah I understand that...but the shipping quote he gave me is $600. That's a bit expensive to me. I'm sure there's gotta be cheaper than that.

Thanks anyhow

Just do a web search for global shipping agencies and find one that'll pick-up in Japan (or have your seller ship the boxes to one of the agency's Japan locations) and get some quotes. When I bought wheels from Japan a couple of years ago, I got them shipped by a company that deals in only commercial shipping...I had to pick up the package at a local airport, but it cost me around $100. Sorry I don't remember their name but I found it with a web search!:-\
