You're so correct Bob. I get tired of people saying rims. A lot can be blamed on TV programs, like on Speed TV. I don't watch "Unique Whips" much but, they call them rims all the time. If I remember correctly, some of the movies from the 50's-60's era, called them the same.I think this started years ago but in my day, it wheels.
To get technical.
Same thing as a engine being misstated as a motor.
Engine = gas
Motor = electric.
