Some hubs make nice pencil holders. Otherwise decent raw material for creative mechanics ----- pulley or hose guide for your yard?

Rims are harder to use, though they are a great way to store tires.

Otherwise it's all scrap metal, probably of no value except in the amounts a shop might accumulate. I know of one shop that carefully saves aluminum and stainless steel until there's enough to call the scrap man. They make enough to fund a party at least once a year.

Otherwise it's the recycling bin with the beer cans
