so i was working at an old womans house a few days ago (i dry out flooded basements) and she asked me to throw out this wheel for her. so before i give it the old chuck, i would like to figure out what it is off of. it has no center cap, and the only possible help i could give is that i think it is off of a foreign car. her husband owns a Mercedes dealership and she has like 6 or 7 70's and 80's Mercedes' in her garage.

here is the pic



thanks

Mercedes had a wheel like that, but it didn't have a center cap. It had the holes for the lug nuts in the face of the rim.

My guess: Early 90's Cadillac Eldorado. 70% sure.

Edit: Turns out it's prolly a Deville.
