      New Forgeline wheels

      Thanks to the guys at Prodigy Customs and the folks over at Forgeline Penny now has a replacement set of wheels since the 17s no longer fit.

      Now I have to decide if these will be my "show" wheels or my "track" wheels.

      They are 18x12 and 18x10 SP03s with a stepped lip. Finish is gunmetal centers (and inner hoops), brushed outer hoops (clear coated) and titanium fasteners.

      Well that should look sinister. I've always liked the five spoke ones.

      Love the new wheels

      I would have to run the mesh for track and keep those for steet/autocross.

      Test fitted them on the car today... happy to report that Forgeline nailed the offsets. Tomorrow I mount some tires. (BFG KDWs)



      Close up of the front. We all voted at BOS and these will be the new "show" daily wheels and the WC3s will be the new "track" wheels.
