Looking at vendor sites there was one version for 79 to 81 and then a second version from 82 to 92.

I always considered the 79-81 Optional Aluminum Wheels to be the Turbo Cast
And the Later 82 to around 85 to be the Bowling Ball wheels
The later Bowling ball wheels are very very expensive as most people did not care for the look and removed the aero outer (bowling ball) cap. Today they are very hard to find a complete set.
I am not sure I have ever seen the bowling ball caps in stainless, only Black or Silver Plastic. The repops are fiberglass.
