Yes but "steel is an alloy of iron."
Steel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
and word has it that some rims are made of steel...

But these are technicalities; we see steel as a product by itself that needs no further clarification so although it is technically an alloy, when we refer to alloys we usually mean the kind we're less accustomed to than steel.
