Market for Used Alloys?

Contemplating trading my '13 Clubman for a '16 MINI hardtop. Question is: I've run dedicated sets of mounted tires for summer/winter use since about 2003.

The new models use 5-bolt pattern wheels so these won't fit something new.

Rather than just turning them in for scrap, I'm wondering what potential there is for selling them off for further use? They're in functional shape but certainly not new so I have no illusions over what they might potentially be worth.

I'm south of LaCrosse WI if anyone interested might be fairly close. Wheels sourced thru TireRack & I can supply pics.

Besides MINIS, what other vehicles use wheels with the same 4-bolt pattern diameter / offsets? I'd heard some Honda models, for instance.

Craigslist is a great way to sell them. Price aggressively and they will go.
