here is the funny thing.

if u ever purchase wheels and tires pre mounted and balanced from some place not local, that is how they package them to you. they slap on 2 round cardboards on each side, then tape it up. i guess this guy used the same idea but failed to realize there is no rubber tire to protect the lip edge.

Looks like the shipper regularly ships with fedex since he has powershipment stickers. Sucks he got ripped off like that.

Its like them saying "We'll only ship it if it can be thrown into the truck" when you call into customer service
