Default Would Wheel Vintiques work?

I was browsing though the Wheel Vintiques site and I found their 90 Series Billet Rallye wheels which come in sizes ranging from 16'' to 20''. I am looking for an 18'' wheels as I'm sure some of you guys know. I am having trouble finding a good looking, decent wheel. I love the look of the old rallye style wheels and honestly I think they look better than quite a few of the newer designs IMO. They have the wheels in 18'' x 8'' with 6 -5 1/2 bolt circle and with two different backspacings: 4 1/2 and 5 1/2. Would these wheels work on my 2006 GMC Sierra?

The wheels are $551.62. They're nice wheels, but thats almost not worth it.

4.5" would stick out a little, and a 5.5" will tuck.

Thats the thing though. I dont want to drop that kind of money, but I cannot find a nice decent, classic 18'' wheel that is fairly priced. I know style and design of wheels are subjective, but simple wheels designs like the old Eagle 219's and the Boyd Timeless 6's are nice wheels to me. Even like a torq-thrust or a rallye wheel would be nice.
