I think wheel vintiques stopped producing the repro wheels. G body parts also doesn't carry the reman wheels anymore. I don't understand why these wheels have been discontinued maybe lack of cores or demand? I know 14 or 15" the centers are the same, its just the outer rim that's different.

You can skip the middle man and send your centers to be fitted to new barrels, that's all the aftermarket vendors did except they ****ed up the BS, didn't provide a full weld (unsafe IMO), barrel design was a little off and the chrome was subpar generating returns thus the demand for them most likely disappeared... that's my take.
Also, most likely with the aftermarket rims available they weren't selling as much given the popularity of sticking wagon wheels on these cars.
Most seeking factory style rims are purists and like to stick to factory issued rims.

Is there even anyone around that will put new barrels onto centers? I have been trying to find a place for a year now. I have a set of 15's, centers look great, barrels are rusty... So I have 14's on the 442 now.
