Hi there, ive got my 92 gs flower power aluminum rims, im wondering if they worth anything as scrap metal? are they pure aluminum?

I believe they are flower power alloy rims. So prob negative on pure aluminum.

I'd get them powdercoated and put them in the FS section, your only hope of unloading them. Why not just use them for winter rims? Or full size spares? I have my o.e. SE wheels with snow tires, 15" lightweights in case I ever go to the track, and my powdercoated 17's for cruisin around....

ive already got snowies on steel black rims, and a spare set of stock civic with good tires... so i was hoping they could suplement the cost of some dope 16-17's.

Don't quite think that's possible, you might be able to fetch a couple hundred for them if they're in really good shape.

do you know of anyone who has powdercoated their stock "flower power" rims? i'm thinking of doing mine but i'm not sure if they would just look lame cause they are in fact stock rims.

There is a member on here who has a silver car, and either painted them or PC them black, and polished the lip, it looks pretty good. I plan on having my SE rims PC too, don't know if I want to just restore them and have them done in silver, or do the black on those too. I'm kinda thinkin silver because they are factory rims.
