Yes please to those alloy wheels. I don’t think I’ve ever seen this generation of S-Class with that style of wheel in the U.S.

They remind me a bit of the wheels on my old car.

Fantastic. The wheels need to sit a bit out more. An inch and a half, maybe, to make them a bit more flush with the sides of the body and less sunken in.

It’s gonna suck to be the next owner, you know with me constantly trying to steal the wheels.

You could probably buy the whole car from the insurance company for less than the wheels are worth.

I’ve had one locally that’s been calling out to me. It’s even a 4-seater optioned car, just like my W220 is.

They were not offered on NA spec W140. As far as I know, all NA spec cars had 8 hole wheels, until the model year 1997 update to 6 hole wheels wheels (unless one chose accessory/optional wheels, monoblocks look fantastic on these cars). I believe the wheel shown here was a ROW offering on the earliest cars, definitely no later than 1993.
Here’s a fun pic of a 140, probably from launch in 1991, with those wheels and a velour interior:
