How wide?
Could be Triumph or Austin Healy, too.
Start with what diameter rim - similar wheels were fitted to cars with sporting aspirations from about 1913 through to the 1950s or possibly even into the sixties, and there may even be a few still made. Likely ones to be around in Australia include MG, as suggested, Austin Healey, various model Jaguar, but also a whole raft of relatively obscure British and European cars from the 1920s to the 1980s and beyond. These would include Bentley, Vauxhall, Alvis, Armstrong-Siddley, Lagonda, Hotchkiss, etc.
The Rudge-Whitworth quick detach wheels were introduced before WW1, and, usually with wire spoked wheels, were fitted probably up to the present day, but have become very rare since about the 1960s. Possibly the most common ones in Australia were on the relatively cheap MG TC - TF, from 1945-55.
That made me laugh out loud![thumbsupbig]Quote:

According to that 14" were on MG "B" types. All the earlier models were bigger diameter.
My technologically advanced 'Rodent Amassing Device' works quite well. [smilebigeye]
