rims
Outer boundary lines
Rims are the outer edges or borders of something circular or curved—the rim of a glass, the rim of a canyon, the rim of a basketball hoop.
In automotive contexts, rims are the metal wheels on which tires are mounted.
Flashy aftermarket rims became a status symbol in car culture: He put chrome rims on his Escalade.
To rim is to form an edge around something, or in sexual slang, to stimulate the anus with the tongue.
