I've sat in both, and I think the RSX seats are definitely more supportive...

USDM ITR seats are mediocre at best.

I would say RSX if they weren't leather. cause they have more side bolstering. If your looking for bling go for the ITR

I think the RSX are definately more bling factor than those damn DC2 Recaros that every hooked up Integ has.

DC5 all the way

well, i used the DC2R sliders to mount my DC5r seats up. so same sliders... as for difference in seat? an inch or two +/-? It's been a while so I don't remember, but i'm short so the difference was negligible. I don't think you'll have issues if you install them that way.

Can I ask why is this in the ITR forum and not the integra or RSX forums?
...Cause it has ITR seats in it?
Maybe it would be best in the Appearance / Cosmetic since it has no technical merit at all.

What Integra do you have? Year, Model, Color? It depends what you are looking for. If you have a third gen Integra then the ITR seats will bolt in.
Get the ITR seats if you have black interior. Then you could get an ITR rear seat also to match. If you like the RSX seats a lot more then get them. If your Integra is not a GS-R, you could upgrade to the higher-quality GS-R cloth seats ( I had them in my Civic and liked them a lot). Or if you do not want cloth at all, you can get leather, get them custom re-apolstered, or buy aftermarket buckets.

In my opinion stick with third gen Integra seats that will compliment your vehicle. This will save you money, time, and hassles.

i hate the leather mang. if you got DC5R seats, i would say go for it. if not, look for some si seats as the alcantra feels so much better than leather. however, i rode in my friend's integra with rsx seats and i felt uncomfortable as my head was close to the A-pillar. i'm 5'10" btw.

the hieght shouldn't be a lot different. Don't forget you can adjust how reclined they are if they are seated to high for you. But being only 5'6 you shouldn't have a problem anyway.

You couldn't pay me to have leather seats. Go with ITR seats or something else thats cloth. With all the side bolstering in the world you're still going to slide around like crazy if the seats are made of leather.
