No Auto Manufacture makes and sells chrome wheels. They are done after the fact and installed at the dealer. Yes some parts depts sell factory wheels that have been chromed but no they are not chromed at the factory.
But yes you can buy a set of factory wheels that are chromed.

Yes many cars came from the dealer with factory wheels that are chromed. However the wheels were not chromed at the factory.
Many of these cars have a addendum with the list of parts and accessories added at the dealer.

If you really want OEM chrome wheels (not sure why), then do a search in classified for "chrome wheel/rim". I do remember someone was selling a set before.
