shipping questions?

just wondering how exactly do you ship wheels and tires? can you get a box big enough for each wheel/tire at UPS or fedex?

I know when we get deliveries from tirerack, the tires come strapped together with a label on the tire directly, no wrapping at all. Not sure about a wheel/tire itself.

Yeah, this. Band strap two rims/tires together, rim faces facing in, towards each other, then shrink wrap the pair and affix your label. UPS/FEDex won't move all 4 at the same time, but two pairs is cheaper than shipping each single.

Recommend a piece of cardboard cut in a circle same diameter as the tire on both outsides and sandwich in between to protect the rims. Just extra precautionary measure so they are not damaged before buyer gets them.
