Yes, you are both right. One set is for steel wheels and the other for the alloy bundt wheels.

The alloy wheels were options on the lower priced models (240D and 300D) while the 300D turbo model came standard with them.

The alloys were so popular dealerships were installing them regularly but to shave costs, only four were installed, leaving the spare as the standard steel wheel.
