Default comfortable seats?

im 5'5, 125 lbs, pretty thin and im done growing... but i need a comfortable seat since my oem leather seat is really uncomfortable and hurts my back, not to mention i slide around on it. i want something cheap, i cant really afford something more than a couple hundred dollars ive been looking into the corbeau forza II and the sparco sprint and stuff, but some people say they're comfortable and others say theyre not..

i drive to and from school every weekend and its like a 45 min drive and i want something comfortable, but something thatll hold me in place and is a good fit for me cuz im really small.. any suggestions? thanks.

me too...

and I want something that sits lower.

so far the SRD fits half the bill, although it's still expensive.

What kind of price range are you looking at? The more you're willing to spend, the more options become available.

$250 each, or for both. If it's $250 for both then good luck, but $250 each can probably find you a good set of OEM ITR seats (very comfy).

Have you seen the ones Integraboy04 is selling? They are replica Recaros, in like dark grey color. Not sure on quality,but they look alright and may fit in your price range. I know your on a budget, but I think it looks funny when you have different seats up front.

If your leather seats are in good condition you could sell them, and then buy some Itr fronts. They go for around $500

my leather seats aren't in THAT great condition, there's no rips or tears, but they're scuffed up on the edges and stuff..

and yea i did see those fake recaros hes selling, he won't even post the damn price because he's too ashamed to post the ridiculous price on his thread. i wont buy anything from people that don't post a price in their thread. it's just ******* dumb

No, that's a non reclinable seat. I used to have one. I mean it holds you down but its not the most comfortable.
I have Honda seats...'00 Prelude cloth seats in my Integra and i love em.

I've done a bit more research, I'm about 5'11" 160lbs 34-36 waist

I hear the Corbeau CR1 are very comfy...and one seat won't set you back too much ($400).

The Sparco Ultra I own is a little too small for me, but still awesome for the "aggressive racer" (it's a bit much for my DC commute, but great otherwise)

The stock Gs-R seats don't do jack for me, plus with the sunroof I have NO headroom, hence why I'm looking at lower seats.

The CR1 apparently sits a little lower. The Del Sols do too?!?

BTW Arospeed seats are apparently made from rebadged Recaros...I just don't want the "AROSPEED" stiching on them, (could make a cover), and am probably on the big side for the SRD/TRS sizing.
