Default Old Wheels- What to Do?

I just bought new wheels to replace my stock aluminum 17" wheels. Before I go trying to sell them on Craig's List or the JK Forum ad section, is there any meaningful market for these?
If not, I will just take them to the local recycler.

There's a market for Rubi wheels, if they're stock sport wheels, I doubt it. No harm and throwing an ad up on CL for a month and seeing if anyone bites.

The hundred bucks or so you get for them will pay for a Mopar same-keyed gas cap or hood lock.

I sold my stock 17 inch sport wheels for $125 about 2 years ago. Sold the tires with 20k on them for $300.
