Default Bent wheels

I have two bent AP2v1 wheels that have been deemed unrepairable, the result of a very solid impact with a curb. Although I would like to get them fixed, if it is truly not possible then I need to do something with them, besides letting them take up space on my porch. It seems silly to put them on the curb and let the county take them, if they even would, so maybe someone here has a suggestion. Or maybe someone wants them for his own purposes.

What do you think?

A buddy of mine sold his damage rims to a junkyard for $15 bucks, its better than nothing. No one wants to buy damage wheels, unless they get srewed over

They make great hose reels for your garden hose or air hose.
