Tires without a rim are class 77.5 The trucking company will rate the haul on this class; the weight of the entire shipment including the pallet; and the lane your freight will travel. In other words a pallet going from Fla to Az will not be the same price as Az to Fla.
While you can call a LTL line direct you will most likely get a better price from a place like Unishippers or freightquote because of their deep discounts. The quote will only cover dock to dock delivery. Anything like liftgate; limited access (farm; residential; ect) appointments; not home at time of delivery so have to re-deliver; will add big time to the cost. Sometimes the extra fees cost more than the trucking. So dropping off or picking up at the LTL dock; or having it shipped to your (or friends) place of work is best.
Tires can ship loose if you choose saving you cost on pallet weight.
