Facelift 'Forks'

Heddy · 3rd April 2019, 10:57

I have these forked alloys as std on my Facelift. I hate them, so when the tyres are worn out I'll replace them with a set of Unions. They're not in excellent condition. My question is, if I offer them free to collector do you think I'd get rid of them? How else can I dispose of them? Will a scrapyard take them?
Cheers.

I was told by my tyre fitter that they get about £3 per wheel from the scrap metal dealer for broken alloy wheels with the tyres off!

Stick them on Gumtree or on here, someone will take them if theyre free.

Yes, seems I'll be able to dispose of them one way or another, need to wear down the Autogrips first.
