Measuring Wheels/Rims

Ok, this may seem trivial but i'm not sure what i need to be measuring to tell if any of my rims are correct. The 16" part is Ok but the width is different on 2 rims. 2 rims measure 4" from the inside bead to inside bead and almost 5" from outside edge to outside edge. I believe i should be measuring from the inside bead to inside bead which would mean i have 2 rims that are 16 X 4.00 and 2 that are 16 X 4.50. My truck is a 50 F1. Am i doing this right? thanks.
