Default What to do with wheels and hubcaps??

Our dealer just installed Scion 16" alloys on my wife's xD (backordered for about a month). I was surprised that they gave us back our wheels and hbcaps. Are they really saleable? Any offers?

Winter is about to start - there should be people looking for a set of small steelies to put winter rubber on. Bolt pattern and offset is good for at least half a dozen cars (tC, corolla, matrix, vibe, neon for starters).

I'll probably put mine on eBay in a month or so.

Tires I might keep stored in tire bags in case people will start needing replacements for the odd 195/60/16 size that's impossible to find anywhere in this country (really - try tirerack...) - then I should be able to get rid of them one by one for a reasonable price.

There's a lady in Seattle, posting on CafeXD that's in need of wheels for snow tires. I'm sure she'd be interested in your set.
