Go find a UPS store or the local Post Office should have some for sale.

Or try to find a small privately owned business in your town and see if they have any spare boxes, maybe offer to pay for them. At the store I work at every week we get piles and piles of boxes for all our product that just get put in a cardboard recycling dumpster. I get all my shipping boxes by just grabbing them from work.

you can get them for free if you go to a discount tire or america tire chain store and look through their dumpster. they have plenty of wheel boxes in there. if you're lucky you can catch them throwing some away and just ask for it. or if you have a friend there just tell him to save some for you. that's where i got mine for some wheels i'm trying to sell.

You can literally bring almost any item of any size to authorized UPS stores and have them package, box it up and ship it for you. Be warned though, it can get expensive.

Thats the logical way to ship wheels. Those are some heavy motha chicken boxes, if theres tires.
My Eurosport wheels were like, saran wrapped 2 at a time together. Then 1 box surrounded each set of wheels so they wouldnt get dented if dropped.
SOOoooo cheap.
