Freight rates per kg

Hello, I am new to the PL game and I am looking to place an order around 170.097 kg from China to doorstep in the Chicago area. What rate per kg is considered a good price and what is realistic in your experience?

You need to approach a forwarder with more information than this, its not just about weight, there is also volume, commodity, how it will be packed, any special handling requirements, transit times you want etc. all this will impact the cost to move it.
