yeah..
you take them to a tire store and pay a fee usually ..
a tire disposal fee..
up to $ 8 last I heard, or that's the worst I've heard.


the wheels..
save them for ...the make nice stands ..or building blocks to put things on
...
or flower pots , or spare wheels for parts vanagons or whatever.
 or just turn them in for scrap metal.
any tire store has a bin full of dented wheels that will go to the metal
recyclers.
they should take wheels free.
