I like to go to the tire store, get wheel boxes and ship them FedEx ground. I have daily pickup though, so it costs me a little less. You can go to FedEx or UPS's website and run rates to find out which one would be less. I think you can take them right to the terminal without going through a third party. You can check Greyhound too. You can ship on them, as long as the receiver is OK with going to the bus station to pick them up.

wheel boxes from a tire store, strap two of the boxes together. It is cheaper to send two together equally 2 total packages than sending 4 individual packages

Depends on where you're shipping them.

Last time I shipped wheels, I think it was 13 bucks a piece. They were Crestlines and were steel rimmed with aluminum centers. They Weighed a ton. They went south...Tennessee, if I remember right.
