  Non sports Rims are those that are provided when the car is purchased ( Yes, those taxi ones)
  Other than that in local context all others are term as sport rims.

  "Sports" rims.. or wat PCK would call it.. spork rim.. actually refers to ALLOY RIMS..
  
  Most standards cars come with steel rims.. they are generally cheaper, heavier, visually less appealing and not as strong when compaired with ALLOY rims.

  other than the material used for non-sport rims is steel.
  
  Sports rims also are usually designed to have big spaces between the spokes to allow better air flow for the brakes.
  
  so usually sport rims allow you to see the brakes.

  To keep the OMV low most imported car are strip of accessories such as sport rim, CD player, bodykit etc. These item are then locally fitted as these accessories are tax differently.
