2 boxes, 2 wheels per box, use a BUNCH of tape and tape the 2 boxes together. we used to tape all 4 boxes together when i worked at robearracing to ship the wheels.

The 16x7 and 16x9 Fuchs rims with Kumho racing tires that I bought from a guy in Florida for my Porsche were shipped in seperate boxes. They showed up in great shape and were easy to handle.
