FWIW, from the article-
In 1992, the Design 90 was replaced by five spoke cast aluminium rims (Cup Style). These were made available in 16" to 18" sizes with widths from 6" to 10"
So, a number of us mere mortals have referred to these as Cup 1 wheels. The article is clear that there is no differentiator based on terminology based on wheel diameter.
16", 17" or 18" - it makes no difference. Cup style, or Cup 1 appear to equally applicable descriptions per the article cited. Same applies to the terms used for Cup 2 wheels.
I note that there are specific descriptors out there that do differentiate between a 16" and a 17" 5 spoke Aluminum alloy wheel and the term used to describe them - but there is no titled difference in the PET.
Regardless, IMHO there is no ill intent on the seller to misrepresent his articles.
