God save the queen from chrome.

Most wheels with chrome finish are terribly heavy when compared to a polished wheel which is what most of the high end wheelmakers are doing, HRE, Fikse, Kinesis, i Forged etc....

You could always just get your stock wheels chromed if that is the kind of thing y ou like.

For a '93 RX7, the stock wheel size was 16x8. If you go with 7.5 you'll be reducing the width of your wheels which can impact your car's handling. I would suggest not getting anything smaller than the stock 8" wheels.
