Default Anyone know where to buy boxes to ship wheels?

Im having a hell of time trying to find a box that fits an 18x9 wheel to ship out. They are either humungous or barely too small. Most boxes are only 18inches wide.. ie. 18x18x24 etc.

I have always got mine from discount tire. Just try another location. The last time I went in they were kinda hesitant. I told them "thats cool" and went to another location and they let me go back and take what I wanted.
