Depends if by "chrome ones", you mean chrome spokes or chrome rim. The '68 and back had chrome spokes and rim, so we know you do not want that style.

The '69/early 70's had chrome spokes with painted rim. Specialty Wheels makes those in 15x8.

If the '69/70's chrome spokes/painted rim are the chrome ones you do not want, then you are looking for the mid/late '70's style with silver/argent painted spokes and painted rim. I am not aware of those being made in 15x8.

15 x 8 Magnum 500's are available, the problem is finding a trim ring that fits without leaving a gap. One option I have heard of, would be to custom order them with backspacing to match the 15 x 7 trim rings that are available on the market.
