Rims are normally shipped in boxes. Rims and tires (mounted) are usually strapped together (two). And shipped plain (unboxed). UPS ground or local ground freight.

unmounted wheels, box them up
wheel/tire combo...cut out cardboard circles about the size of the total diameter, tape them over the face and backing of the wheels

yup... that's what I did - it keeps the overall dimension smaller (and cheaper)
