No. You wouldn't want to pay the dealer price anyway.

Buy a set of used stock rims and get the reconditioned and chromed.

Mazda never manufactured chrome rims. Some dealers sent the OEM rims out, and had them chromed. I would sell you mine, but you probably wouldn't pay my ridiculously high price .

Put a WTB ad in the 3rd gen parts section. Maybe you will get lucky. Chroming OEM rims will probably run about $100 each.

I had mine done at califorina chrome in valencia california. great job and they did the plastic center caps in chrome by way of a special vaccum process that bonds liquid chrome to the pieces. came out great!
