There's plenty of art ideas! https://www.recyclart.org/2013/05/recycled-hubcaps/
Paint them like flowers, attach them to a piece of copper pipe and put them in your garden or flower bed.
Sell them on Craigslist . People lose them all the time and are looking for an economical way to replace the one that they lost. Just meet somewhere safe, like in front of the police station .
You could also use them for a bird bath, if they are the domed ones. You could also use them to crate a wind chime or like a mobile, like the type that hangs over a crib but can hang it from a tree.
I drill holes in the sides of mine, hang from a chain and use as a bird feeder. I have also attached them to a stump or post with screws and glue and used them as bird baths.
Thanks to everyone for their contributions. Feeling more confident about finding good used for these hubcaps!
