original caps with aftermarket wheels

Do any of you gentlemen know of an aftermarket wheel that will accept an original 59 GMC cap with 7 9/16" ID? And hopefully can be an 18" wheel. Am I asking to much?

I know about the Delmo specials but the price is more than I want to pay.

Yes..I talked to the guys at Detroit steel and unfortunately the stock cap won't snap on their wheel. Wheel smith will work but only on a 16" wheel. Probably will go with an 18" vintique smoothie and a bullet cap although I would have loved to use a stock cap.
