Assorted Automotive Tires and Rims (Scrap Pile)

This item consists of a substantial collection of assorted automotive tires and rims, appearing to be a scrap pile situated outdoors in a dry, grassy environment, possibly a salvage yard or rural property. The collection includes a mix of black rubber tires, some still mounted on rims, and a variety of metal rims. The tires exhibit various tread patterns and states of wear, with visible cracking, sun damage, and dirt accumulation, indicating they are past their useful life for road safety. Many tires are stacked in piles, some individually, and others are scattered. The rims are predominantly made of metal, ranging from steel to aluminum alloys. Styles vary, including multi-spoke designs (e.g., a silver mesh-style rim), solid-faced wheels (e.g., a five-spoke magnum-style wheel), and standard steel wheels. Colors include silver, black, and dull grey. There are visible signs of corrosion, pitting, surface rust (on steel rims), dirt, and general degradation on most of the metal components. Some rims are without tires, while others are still paired. There are no clear manufacturer's marks or definitive identifying features visible in the image that would suggest a specific brand or model for valuation beyond their scrap potential. The overarching condition is outdoor storage, exposed to elements, resulting in significant weathering and lack of preservation. Given the mixed styles and conditions, these items are best categorized as discarded automotive components, likely intended for metal recycling or disposal.
