Does anybody own these seats? I drive 100+ miles daily. Can anyone suggest what seats would be best?

Thanks

Some that feel comfortable to you. Don't buy **** if you haven't sat in it and decide you like it.

 

Something comfortable. We don't know what you like in a seat. Go sit in some and decide for yourself. I have never sat in any Tenzo Seats before.

I have sat in the USDM and JDM ITR seats, the Red CTR recaros, del sol seats, eg, and ek seats, EP3 seats, s2000 seats, and GSR seats. I like both the USDM and JDM ITRs, and the del sol seats. The CTR recaros were to wide for me, my seats(ek) and the eg seats are to hard, the ep3 seats are nice but would mount to high in my car(I'm very tall) the s2000 seats were nice as well, and the GSR seats are just, not my thing.

But like I said, I might like something that you don't and visa versa. Go sit in the seats you think you want and find out for yourself.

 

Tenzo seats will fade in about 1 week if the car is left outside. All the seatbelt guides pop out repeatedly, and the fabric falls apart in about a month from constant use. I have seen it personaly, and I was very surprised...

 

you get what you pay for. Recaro's are worth the money, Tenzo are not.

If money is a problem, buy one Recaro (for driver side) and leave the other stock

 

RECARO all the way

-joe

 

I've had my Sparco Torino's for almost two years now and the driver's seat still looks new! Still feels new!

 

I have both driver and passenger side Tenzo's and the seem fine, no fadeing, everything is nice. Drove to NC with them from florida nice and comfy. Only complaint is that the top is not very supportive, but the bottom is.

 

i have been in the JDM ITR Recaros.. which are like the Recaro SPD seats i believe.. i ferget.. but yea.. they're very comfortable. i'd recommend recaros

 

recaro hands down

Tenzo may have the look, but its in no way as supportive as the real thing. I was at this shop and they had a recaro srd and the tenzo knock off side by side. tried them both, tenzo had no lumbar support whatsoever. The recaros feel like they are giving u a hug! In the end guess which ones i bought?

 

its like if tenzo was a yugo and recaro was a bently!!

This is all too true... Tenzo seats are doo doo baby!

 

Recaro Speed seats are nice

 

Tenzo recaro style seats are pretty nice although they fade... I bought a set of the bride brix replica seats off drunkinbass on here and they're comfy but are starting to fade pretty bad
Anyone know of any nice seats name brand or not that will not fade? My black alcanatara is starting to look pinkish in the sunlight

 

anyone ever sat in the memoryfab cf backed seats?

 

I had the Sparco Sprint Seat in my other car. and i daily drove on the non-reclinable seat and it was fine. my opinion is find a seat that you actually sat on and liked because you are going to be driving 100+ miles a day.

 

hey if bus drivers and NASA use Recaro's, hell Im using recaro

 

stock GSR's over cheap immo seats... want my fake red recaros for 50 bucks?

 

i think bride seats are the most comfortable sat in them at a car show........

This guy is 100% correct... Recaro vs. Tenzo is like comparing apples to oranges.

 

I had a pair of the USDM Recaro SRDs in my old accord. Depends how big of a guy you are. I'm like 150 and i fit snuggly into SRDs. So that might tell you something about Recaros. I know the Tenzo ones are wide as hell. I wouldnt even consider those racig seats since i slide around even more than a stock seat.

What if you like both apples and oranges the same?

You have to be like 150lbs. then! Those seats are for thin people. I tried to sit in some bride's and the side bolsters squeezed my legs together and smashed my nutz. Im 5'10" 220. Recaros work better for us stocky guys.

I was comfy in my red ones, and i'm 220

 

Sat in several sets of Tenzo's and yes, they were squishy and nice, not rough and shitty, but with other people's input, I would not go with them.

Wouldn't anyway, because the word "Tenzo" just makes me ICKKKK, but whatever floats your boat.

Aren't their Sinko-R rims lighter than Rota Group N's though? (someone told me that after finding out I had Group N's a while back)
