I saw Penny years ago and it looks awesome with those wheels. I looked at the Boze and the Forgeline for my car. Frank at Prodigy sold me on the Forgelines. I have a set of VR3ps. The quality is second to none. Call Frank!

Yea, try for some pricing from Frank as well. I know that you can get some good discounts on these if you try.
Just ask Bill Howell what kind of deal he got on his Forgelines.. lol
And yes, Penny did have the silver wheels at one time. The previous owner (who I'm thinking is less smart that I originally though) painted the centers the current grey color. Forgeline let me know yesterday that when the guy took apart the wheel he re-assembled them and torqued the perimeter bolts (that hold the wheels together) FIVE TIMES what they should be.
Now I need all new bolts since they were overstressed to the point of failure. Thank God Forgeline is helping me out since the math is scary. How many of those special bolts are on a set of 4 wheels? I guess around 80. Even at a few bucks each that's serious coin.
Sorry, had to vent.
Silver centers.. come on, you know you want them
