I may be all alone with my opinion, but if these are original MB wheels, $400.- for the set is an absolute steal. If shipping from CA to OH wouldn't be more than the price of the wheels, I would be in right away. Even not using them and putting them away would be well worth it.

I don't share your opinion, BUT shipping wouldn't be more than the wheels.  I've shipped lots of wheels, to ship from CA to OH by priority mail would be about $190 for the 4 of them.  UPS might be cheaper.

You may get a special rate from USPS. I ship a lot of stuff from ebay sales and just the other day, one 8lbs box 15x10x15 from here to 92692, Mission Vjejo was $55.- priority mail
I don't know how heavy one wheel is, but it may be in that neighborhood. UPS for these sizes and weight is always more expensive, especially if you ship to a private residence, not a business.
And forged Fuchs wheels for $100.-/each are inexpensive. They will go up as time goes by. I just bought a set of 6x15 Fuchs Porsche wheels for a client's car for $1,800.-

  No, stock rate from USPS.com  Pick a California zip code and an ohio zip code and plug in the numbers.  Box size is 16 x 16 x 16 and each wheel weighs 13 pounds so a box is about 27-28 pounds.  Note that I'm not the seller, just someone who has shipped a lot of "aluminum steelies" all over the world (they weigh 11 pounds and take the full wheel cover).

You can't really compare 15" Bundt wheels with 14" Bundt wheels.  14" Bundts are (to me) recyclables.
