I sent a set of wheels with tyres to TAS from the ACT for about $270 using Airroad Direct
They come to your location and pick the items up.

Theres an online quote too.

I sent a set of mags to SA from Qld by Australia Post. Wrapped each one separately, and it cost around $16.00 each to mail. I think they were around 12-15kgs each in weight.

Try Australian National Couriers... they are the best! I sent 700kg from Melbourne to Brisbane...only cost $88.00. Can send their number if you want!

I sent 4 wheels with tyres from Melbourne to Brissy on a pallet for about $100 with TNT. It was a while ago now so I cant remember the exact amount unfortunately.
