End-of-life Aluminum Wheels can be scrapped like any other auto component such as alternators, radiators, catalytic convertors etc. Scrap yards prefer Clean Aluminum wheels, but most of the times accept rims with tires on. However, they pay less after charging necessary tire removal charges. It is always better to remove rubber tires and lead wheel weights to get maximum returns from the scrap. In fact, the attachments can be sorted and sold separately for cash.
