^ thanks for the tips.. USPS seems to be the cheapest way 3 + 1.
You are quite welcome

I thought I'd mention my VW wheel buying experience.. Bought a set of factory wheels off a fellow newbeetle.org member, with tires. Shipping price was about 150, but the overall deal was too good to pass up. He packed 2 in a box, tires on the rims. Along with about 6
million styrofoam packing peanuts. There were so many peanuts that I couldn't get the tires out of the boxes without removing half of them. The peanuts worked, though. The sets arrived undamaged.
