Is there someone who will do a "good" package and ship it?

I'm in Canada. I've kind of given up on buying stuff from Canadian retailers....it's proven over and over that even with exchange (30-ish %) and shipping, I still do better buying stuff out of the Good Ol USA. That said, is there some one who would put together a proven package and ship it my way? IE: 18 or 20 inch front rims, narrower than stock, with a good tire, 18 or 17" rear rims (that match the front) with good rubber. My rear stock tires are worn....and I'm going to buy the same PZeros for replacement. They work great for normal driving. But I want a full set of wheels and tires for drag use and short cruise use. I'd like to just order the whole shot from someone who knows what the hell works and fits. Ideas?

I purchased my 18x5 and 17" Racestars Darkstars from Beefcake racing and it was cheaper then buying it in Canada. They put the price at like $80 so I didn't have to pay a lot in duties. If you tell him your a forum member he gives a better discount.

@DaveB
I usually check with Summit and Jeg's. They have the best shipping rates to Canada.
No surprises from the price in checkout.
Shop around a little. Make sure stuff does not get shipped by UPS.

I usually try to get anything shipped from the US to come USPS. Some couriers brokerage fees are ridiculous.

Thanks for the replies gang. I am on board with the "NO UPS" deal....been there, been bent over. I have ordered lots of car parts from Summit and Jegs, and they are both great. This issue I have is that there are a ton of wheel sizes and offsets and part numbers....I just want someone to have a setup where they can say that this fits a Hellcat, no issues. I've been reading these forums for two years and I still can't get a definite answer on sizes and part numbers.....

I'd order from Summit for sure if I had actual PN's and sizes.

What is the deal with UPS and Canada? Or do you mean UPS general shittiness?

I haven’t received anything via UPS for a long time. I remember ordering a $30.00 US part and getting hit with a $35.00 CAN fee when delivered. This fee is our HST (sales tax) plus their brokerage fees. I usually order parts shipped to a warehouse in Port Huron Michigan and drive over to pick up. I try to keep the cost of purchase down below $250 to avoid paying tax at the border. The warehouse charges $5 US to pick up the parcel, also $4 US for bridge toll, plus a bit of gas.
Getting parcels by mail will sometimes have the 13% HST fee but usually not. Since COVID-19 there’s no more border crossings.
I was looking at buying a set of the Mopar 2020 Hellcat fender badges in brass monkey. The badges are $119 US plus $40 courier to which brokerage charges would be added here. Cant justify that charge.

UPS charges a brokerage fee plus the taxes. The taxes I have no issue with really as it is what it is. The problem is the brokerage fees of $55 or about. When it comes by USPS if you are charged the brokerage fee it"s $5. I ordered a window seal for my '67 Satelite way back at $ 117 USD. + 25% echange at the time and when it shoe=wed up there was $125 CAN charges from UPS.

@DaveB I feel your pain on wanting part numbers for proven rim and tire combinations that work. We should sticky a shared list of part numbers for what combos bolt up plus what combos need the wheel well mod.

Your setup is exactly what I’m after. What front tires are you running? Beefcake Racing has a good site...I’m definitely interested.
