Can you sell just one or two alloy wheels, or do you need a full set?
Short answer: You can sell as few as one wheel as scrap because buyers pay by weight, but a full set is the only way to get a good price as used wheels, and a single wheel may not be worth a special trip, so combine odd wheels with other aluminium or hold them until you have enough to justify the journey.

List Free →As scrap
One wheel is worth its weight in aluminium, though minimum quantities and transport costs may make a single wheel awkward to sell.
As used wheels
Buyers of used wheels generally want matching sets, so odd wheels are much harder to sell as wheels.
Combine loads
Selling odd wheels with other aluminium scrap makes the trip worthwhile and gets you a better overall price.
