San Jose Monterey Rd past the pick and pull (away from downtown) The big recycler accepts everything im pretty sure they will take them.

also RIGHT across the street is a used rim yard, check them out first, they will probly give you more than steel is worth. (youd probly get a few bucks just recycling? i dont know, ive never recycled steel)

edit oh san ramon? i dont knoww, theres gotta be a place in Oakland

Know of a place that might be interesting in R&R'ing a set of bent '05 STi BBS? Like 3 of them. Maybe 4. All hold air but they don't balance out fully. Bought them as a beater set but have no use for them now... Thinking that maybe Wheeltechniques or Fixrim might take them to fix + resell...
