I can call my account rep and see if he can give me a quote with the to zip, from zip and weight.

I appreciate the offer but I don't yet have the to zip and the wheels still have the tires mounted on them and I have no idea how much the wheels themselves weigh. And since we have suddenly been hit by numerous snowstorms I am guessing it will be a bit before any tire store will have time to remove them. (I went to get new tires on my eagle last night and checked my car in at 5:30 and finally left with new tires installed at 10:00). 

I remember reading somewhere (maybe it was here?) about someone shipping wheels and one not arriving. So what I was thinking of doing is somehow marking the shipping address (and maybe the return address) on all 4 wheels and fastening them together in two's and ship them in two boxes. I'll just have to check into a few options and see where it goes from there.
