Old rims + scrap = ?

Ok, so my buddy randomly comes to my house and leaves 3 enkei rims at my house that he pulls of the back of his jeep and says yours for 25bucks.... i laughed and walked away and he left them not thinking anything of it.... he never told me where he got them and he's mad sketchy about it but anway... theres no way in he'll id sell these unless some one has the exact rim and needs 3 of them.... theyr nice only with a bit of curb rash on 1, if they were in better condition and had 4 of them id easily wrap them in tires and put them on for the winter

what should i do with them...

can i scrap them (one of my friends says he makes lots of money scraping random pieces of metal)....

or

a junkyard?

any suggestions im lost...

I'm sure you could sell them individually, easier than selling all 3 together. My friend curb checks her rims all the time and she wants my stock ones once I upgrade... so I'm sure there are lots of other people looking for replacements.

Or you can buy just a single rim online and sell all 4 as a set.



The SEARCH feature on the site works, I promise. USE IT!!!
