Most big tire shops can have them chromed for you. Price is ~$150.

I just put chrome stockers on the wife's G35. They send you the wheels and you ship them your old ones back to them in the same boxes.

Which wheels are you wanting chromed?

Like I said, I did the wife's 17" stockers and it was $440.00 for their wheels and I sent them the ones that came with the car.
