big inch steel wheels

does anyone make a 18" steel wheel that will accept olds poverty caps? the ones on this chevelle were custom made, but this is kind of what im going for.

easiest way to do it is Centerlines

they only make 18" in 8" but you can have wheels narroowed or widened.
You can make your own clips to hold the caps. Here is a sample with 22" on a old beater.

Wheelvintiques.com and also Stocktonwheel.com
Wheel Vintiques has a 18x5 version on their site but I haven't gotten a response from them about back spacing and widening.

Here are the 17x9 Wheel Vintiques series 62 at Summit, cheaper than WV site. Have seen these on a car or 2 and looks pretty good. They have them in 7" and 8" as well.

Here are 18x8 Wheel Vintiques but the are smoothies and I believe they take caps that snap inside not outside the inner hoop. Maybe they are the same diameter and you can add bumps outside to fit a dog dish cap?
