What to do with damaged wheels?
I have once each damaged front stock wheels. One Nismo, one Sport. They're ugly and not suitable for repair, but it's a big hunk of forged aluminum. Do I just give them up for scrap value?

Art? Make a coffee table or something.. hang them up on the wall of your garage as trophies?
Since you have two, you could make two glass top end tables...

You could hang each one on a wall and use them to wrap your garden hose, or air hose around. Did that with a beat up pair of TR bead lock rims I had at the old house.

Both are great options! If you're really strapped on cash.. you COULD recycle them but its not much you'll get back. I've done this once and you only get about $0.50 a pound depending on your area.

Scrap aluminum wheels are going for $0.45-.50* a lb. nation wide.
