The reason your bolt pattern measurement doesn't seem to line up with anything is because you're measuring between the adjacent bolts. The correct way to measure with an even number of bolts is center to center between opposite bolts on the hub. Once you measure this way you will likely find that you have the standard 4 on 4 bolt pattern. If you're looking for a 10" wheel like the # AM20053 you looked at with a 4 on 4 bolt pattern you could use the # AM20041.
I have attached a help article below which explains how to measure both even and odd bolt hole patterns for your reference.
