What do ya think of these seats?

2FastLX · 08-14-2001, 02:54 AM

I just thought these seats looked pretty cool. Plus they are only $250 plus $125 for the seat bracket.

Anyone have any experience with these or similar seats? They don't look like they would be very comfortable for long drives.

They look cool but they are uncomfortable and on a daily driver I would not put them in my car.

The seat on the left ($386 in cloth) is what I was thinking of getting:

I need the ability to recline.

This one for $460 is pretty cool, too:

I like the shape of the last seat you pictured Jim, but I think it's got a little too much blue in it. I was looking at similar seats at www.subesports.com and they have some that don't have quite as much of the "color" to them.

Seat source looks like they need to rethink their website for larger screen resolutions =)

I kinda like this seat too even though it has a tad too much color in it: http://www.subesports.com/images.pro.../00951.red.jpg
That one looks pretty comfy.

You can get that Blue seat in black, red or yellow, also. Black would be the only option for me, but I bet it would get hot.

i went out to kenny brown's shop this past weekend to pick up a speedo gear, they had 4 seats on their showroom floor on display, 3 Recaro's and 1 Sparco, they were all over $600 but i sat in them and i have never felt anything more comfortable, i almost fell asleep in one of them (i guess that could be bad while driving

) suprisingly i thought the Sparco was more comfortable than the Recaro's

A friend of mine has those blue ones, but in yellow. They're awfully comfortable in the short-run...
