The red and brown walnut were on the C70 versions up to about 2002. They then did facelift and the wood changed to red wood and light wood. This is what the redwood wheel looks like:

I'm fairly sure that the totally wooden wheels came only on the 850 era cars, and then dependent on spec. I have only seen them in the lighter wood. As they came from the 850, the airbag is smaller as well, so that will need to be changed/fitted when you finally catch up with one. They do fit, but they are rare as hens teeth.
