What is a "rim"?
A rim is the outer part of a wheel that holds the tire in place. It is usually made of metal and provides support for the tire, keeping it securely attached to the wheel. The rim helps the tire maintain its shape and ensures it does not slip off while the vehicle is moving. Rims come in different sizes to match the specific type of tire and vehicle. They also help distribute the weight of the vehicle evenly across the tire, improving the vehicle's stability and handling.
