patrikbrunt Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 Ive searched and searched on this topic but still not found a decent company that has had good feedback. Basically I won a set of wheels on ebay that are 300+ miles away from me so I need to organise a courier to collect them. But ideally i'd like a service specifically for wheels as I have no idea of the weights and all the mainstream couriers seem to ask for that. Also i'd feel a little more piece of mind using a company that frequently deliver wheels. I found the wheelcourier.com site but saw bad press on here about them? Has anyone sent wheels in the past and can recommend a good company to use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Branners Posted August 14, 2009 Share Posted August 14, 2009 Just for info, we are not allowed to discuss wheelcourier.com, be it good or bad as they threatened us with legal action. http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/showthread.php?t=181342 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patrikbrunt Posted August 14, 2009 Author Share Posted August 14, 2009 Yeh I did spot the thread regarding said company... that's what put me off them as they have obviously had some dissatisfied customers from the club... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
