I'd associate those with a Nova to be honest, maybe I'm just old! I nominate these:    I'd associate these with a W123, but I'm aware that others may associate them with other models:

Most Mercedes wheels from the 60s to mid 2000s.
- The classic colour coded hub design. - The 'Mexican hat' alloy - The 18 hole manhole cover alloy - The classic AMG alloy.
