Really?
Wheels weigh 22 lbs (8 OEM)
Say 17-18in across (17in rims+box and packing)
Say 7-10in deep (8in width+box and packing)
Use the calculators to get a ballpark.

god i hope i get these wheels
Weight of a tire/wheel combo should be between 45-50 lbs, unless they're chrome dubs (heavier), or magnesium (lighter). Box size should be figured at ~ 26x26x12. Really all the shipper needs to do is to slap some round cardboard covers over both sides of the wheel, strap them on and ship.

We use UPS to ship everything where I work. For what you are doing it should run about 25-30 each, depending on if going to business or residence. Make sure he puts some cardboard layers on the top side of that box to protect the rims. Get insurance too.
