The cheapest quote I've got was from fedex.com shipping them individually. Will probably be $25-$30 each..I"ve got a set of wheels that i'm selling so i've doing alot of quotes. Measure the wheel & tire height and width, and get the weight. Plug all that info into fedex.com and there you go

I pulled up my old qoutes, it was $85 just for wheels and lugs. I went to a packing store and bought a few boxes. You should find some 18x18" boxes but you may have to cut them down to 12" tall. I believe that you can fill out a pick up form online, not sure if their is a surcharge or if you need an account.

Here how you save. Box rims in old wheel boxes. Wrap the wheels to prevent shafing from cardboard. Go to UHaul and buy two boxes in which you can fit two stacked boxes with rims. Pack and seal. Take to Fed ex ground and probably pay 55-60 buck on the two large boxes with two wheels each.
Last I shipped from Houston to Chicago I spent 51.00 to ship 4- 17x9's

i usually take my shipping needs to Staples. They have the ups store in there. They will wrap everything you have if need be. For wheels tho, i haven't shipped any out yet. The prices aren't too bad either

I shipped 2 wheels USPS and it was between $40-45 to ship, and the best way to ship the 2 wheels was in 2 boxes tied together like it was one box. my aunt is a postmaster and told me to do it this way
