Default Need wheel information please!

I posted this on general but still no response. Sorry if it's a dumb question but I need to know.

2 wheel questions:

1) What size are the stock wheels on my 2005 z51? I've heard and read 18x9.5" front, 19x10" rear, but I just went outside and used a tape measurer to measure my wheels and came up with diameters of 19.5" front and 20.5" rear. Somehow I doubt they are 20" because when other people say they have "20's" they look bigger than my wheels. Am I measuring the wrong way? How do I measure my wheels?

2) The reason I'm trying to find out what size wheels I have is because I want to upgrade to black chrome wheels. Stock size is ok, but black chrome will look better on my limo tinted lemans blue vette with black interior. Wheels I'm talking about are like these at ebay auction, but these are the wrong size I think right? I mean they may be the right size for front (18x9.5") but all four here are the same size, that's no good.

Anyone know where I can get cheapest price on a set of these wheels for stock wheel size replacement front and rear set? Thank you!
