Default Need help to determine wheel size; 18x9.5 or 18x10.5?

how can i tell if my C5 Z06 wheels are 18x9.5 or 18x10.5?

i need to replace one of them that got slightly damaged and i want to make sure that i get the right replacement.

i measure the lip starting from behind the spoke to the outer edge and it was 2inch.

i feel that it might be a 18x19.5 but need help to double check

any help

It doesn't say what it is somewhere on the inside of the Rim?

It's measured from lip to lip. Where the bead of the tire would sit.

Flip the wheel over, it'll give you the size and offset.

thanks,

found it on thursday.

At first i couldn't find the freaken size on the wheel as the spokes were really dirty. So i cleaned them and found the GM stamp and on another spoke i found the size with off set lol.

Thanks everyone.
