    Wow they don’t pay much for wheels! We got $20 a wheel in 2001. Now it’s around $25 per wheel. These guys drive from North Dakota and pick them up at our shop.

      Getting .93 to .98 per pond for aluminum wheels, the busted pieces shouldn't be less, weigh right along with wheels. always some way to Gough you.

      @Okiescrapper  ปีที่แล้ว

      depends on the grade and where I take it. Rims pay the best. and I get about $3.00 a lb. on eBay. best to call around your area
