I was able to get Chrome working by doing the following (as root):
wget http://chrome.richardlloyd.org.uk/install_chrome.sh chmod u+x install_chrome.sh ./install_chrome.sh
Chrome can then be run with the command: google-chrome & Note that this will only run as a regular user, not as root.
I ran that script to get Chrome v29.x to install 6 or 7 months ago... it fetches a GTK package from a fedora 15 repo and segregates it from the CentOS GTK files, if I recall correctly...
yum has since upgraded Chrome 3 or 4 times (now at v31.something) from Google's repo with no further hoop jumping.
