celica seats.. it was a $ 100 from ebay. i paid another 100 to fix it up and wash it so it looks like its new.
compared to other racing seats its MUCH more comfortable for my wide butt. but its still holds me.
im glad i bought these instead of the cheap no brand ebay racing seats.

yes... they should put these seats in the first place.
much better than my soft tc seats.
and you can adjust the driver side.. so your butt sits lower. btw i put it up to the tallest setting and its still better than the tc seats.

Now here's a question. I've got a wider butt than other people. I'm 6' and weigh 235lbs.
How's the butt cushioning with these? Cuz other seats like the ones in srt4s hurt and are very uncomfortable when I sit in them for a longer period of tome

cushioning on recaros is amazing but depends on the model.. SRDs have the most cushioning and hold u in awesome.... just like brides but brides are made for small ppl. sparcos are wider but dont have as much leg or shoulder support, carbeaus are ok... momos offer more support.
if i had to buy i'd a recaro speed or OEM recaro from an evo or like design seat.. they do not make SRD's anymore only speeds as reclinables..
u can also get fixed seats which hold u in the best but the padding is very thing and u cannot recline.
