Looking to identify both of the Battlemechs in this image. I think the red one is a Centurion, but I'm not sure. No idea on the other.

Neither could I, and so I went to the main page...
www.warboards.org/
And after looking around at some of the pictures, I still couldn't find anything that remotely looked like a BT mech.

The Gray one is a Wolf Trap or at least looks like one with some funky Solairs "extras" added to it. Or maybe a Griffin with some extras added...
The Red one...I would say Centurion or Panther...

The red one is a Centurion, the head "fin" is very distinctive for that design. It could be a heavily modified Panther, but I would bet on the Centurion.
The other design...is a Wolverine of all things. An altered one at that, I don't know any Wolverine that carries a mace.

Cent (The head fin is quite distinctive, and the rest would also fit) and Wolverine (definitely a phoenix variant).
The pic comes from the Solaris VII book, doesn't it?

Yes the picture is from the old Solairs VII box set, it's not a new picture.

Which variant in the PP book has the Wolverine carrying a mace and sporting spikes?

I think both are Solaris Variants as Solaris has the habit to don't let a mech unmodified in his arenas.

Neither, but the shape of the torso and SRM launcher are more than just a little similar...
Both 'Mechs are some S7 refits, which means a lot of non-standard equipment.
