Scrap value

[Albannach]

Roughly; what is the scrap value of a, standard, Surf alloy wheel?

[muddle]

think you get £8 to £10 a wheel, thats for a 15"

Think I got slightly less than that each for four 18"'s that two of had been destroyed.
In hindsight I should have bought two new ones and sold a set in good condition. Sometimes the agro isn't worth it at the time.

just because they were 18" does not mean they are more valuable. it is dependant on their weight, you need to bear in mind the width of the surf wheel. its wider than the average 225 (7j) 18" alloy. plus there is more metal on the spokes as apposed to fancy multi-spoke wheels.

Good point

The guy I took mine to just looked at them and done that breathing air in through the teeth thing that people do when they're thinking about money, and then said a number.
