Those appear to be wheels.

A rim is the outer portion of a wheel that contacts the tire.

I use wheels/rims interchangeably too. As incorrect as it may be, everyone understands.

Very classy and very nice.

Wha? A rim and a wheel can be considered the same thing.
I understood perfectly what he was saying he just bought. No need for nit picking to that extent. And the new rims look nice. What brand are they?
