I did a quote to 50131 (Grimes, IA) when Covertness first posted these and I was getting approx. $500 for shipping with either FedEx or UPS. I just estimated 4 packages, 34x34x13 @ 100 lbs each. Not cheap but still a fair deal considering how rare these wheels are.

I think better shipping rates can be had going freight instead of UPS or Fedex ground. Maybe by pallet?
BTW I want these bad... but you are just a little too far away. :-(

I would agree. Ups Ground gave me $528 for a quote and FedEx ground was $513. The size, weight, and insurance on them is what the killer is. I’ve had larger items sent via freight on a pallet for a much more affordable rate. I also just punched everything in online. Going to the store or calling with the actual sizes might get you a better price. I was just estimating on size, weight and value as well.

Gotcha... well. If I wasn’t going west bound next week, I would be contemplating a road trip to the Carolinas. Darn it all!

No, Roush did not do anything to the crash bars. They install the Fox 2.0 leveling kit and mount the tires. These are 33" tires and there no rubbing what so ever. I just installed the Roush Raptor tires in their place which are 34.5" and there was a little rubbing until I tapped the rear crash bars back a little.
With a supercharged 5.0 coyote growling through a Roush exhaust, you can't hear the tires at all.

Are you ever in the Raleigh area? I'd love to throw 2 of these on my truck to see what they look like before committing.
