First off, you do not have '84 rims from these sizes.

The 17 inch rim was introduced in '89 as a 9.5 inch width. The 11 inch I
believe is the rear ZR-1 rim, which while it came out in Dec. '89, was not
available to the public until the '90 model.

The standard size for '84 to '88 was 16x8.5 and the 16x9.5 was from the Z51
option. The '84 to '87 are the same wheels with paint changes and the '88
is a different design.
