I agree with Doc. By the time you took your originals apart, had them chromed, reassembled and trued, you'd spend more than a new set of Daytons. Also steel spokes can become embrittled when chromed. Dayton uses stainless steel spokes to prevent that problem. If I had a set of Borranis, I'd probably get them chromed, but not some standard Dunlops. BTW, I still think some black wires might look stunning against the Regency Red. If you want to save a few bucks, try spray bombing one of your wires black and see if you like the look. OTOH, chrome would also look really sweet against that paint as well.
