    Take to a CORE buyer if you have one in your area. Clean (i.e. no center caps, wheel weights or valve stems) You are looking at $55-$60 bucks or so!
    I'm so into scrapping.. When my Steel Toe Boots Wear out, I cut the Steel out of them and recycle the Toe!

    Are these rims on good shape? If they are clean them up and put an add on craigs list. Do some home work and see what new ones sell for and ask a little less for them. If they are usable they should bring more than scrap.

    Jeez I get that from my yard at 74 cents a pound. What do you get for clean AL rims near you?
