Shipping weight for tire and rim

Hi,

Does anyone know how much a stock alloy rim with tire weighs for a 95 Maxima GLE. I am trying to get my wife's GLE back to stock condition but her rims are trashed. I found some, but I am trying to figure out how much shipping will be. I know I can't get an exact weight, but I would like something close (or at least a reasonable guess).

I need the total weight for a rim with mounted tire.

P.S. It's the kind with the 14 holes around the edge.

Thanks!
Rob.

well assming if you have one, why don't you step on a family scale. read how much you weigh, pick up the rim n step on the scale again. subtract that from your own weight and see what the difference is. this is what i do to figure out how many lbs something is

I checked on USPS.

28x28x12 box at 50lbs. $16 each to ship, no problem.

The lady doesn't have boxes (and doesn't want to deal with it). I found boxes online for $25 for 10 boxes. But it's $93 to ship the boxes to her, because it's too big/heavy for UPS and has to be shipped by special freight.

Bummer! I guess I'll have to keep on looking.
