I've used UPS and FEDEX.. it'll cost $30-50 per wheel depending on where it's going and size/weight...
if you have tires mounted I would recommend taping some huge carboard circles to the front and back on the rim.. then they can be rolled around for shipping...

Depends on a lot of factors. Ontrack seems to be pretty cheap. I agree that Greyhound is a decent way to go but a bit of pain to go to the station if one is not close by.

Best to individually pack each wheel and ship Fedex Ground - rates are better than UPS.
Box the whole thing, don't tape card board on both sides (this refers to wheel/tire combo).
