My light green station wagon has (and always has had) limestone wheels. What was the standard? I know that DBG vehicles had DBG rims, but I thought most others had limestone unless an oddity like a fire engine???

I also understood the wheels were limestone or ivory ,depending on the year,  other  than  deep bronze green (DBG) wheels  on DBG vehicles,  plus red wheels on Fire engines . The colours       may also be listed in the relevant years publicity literature or Salesman's brochure .
