very durable.. very snug.. hold you in better then most seats out there.. not the most comfortable seat.. offers decent pading. PITA to get in out.. side bolsters are very hight comparing to mugen, spoon, sparco, etc.. i give it them all the 's up

I'm 5'10", 139 lbs. Would I fit in the small size seats? I fit in my Sparco Rev well if that's any indicator.

5'10" 139lbs? When you stand sideways in the shower do you get wet?

Well, here are the choices: I have a crx (gonna be black inside and out, its red outside/black inside right now). I wanna get Takata Seat Belts, which are GREEN! I also will have Mugen pedals, steering wheel, and ****.

1) Bride's in Black
2) Bride's in Red
2) Mugen's (would it be worth the extra $$$, kinda weird colors)?

Anyone know how much Bride's weigh?

those sparco's pictures.. side bolsters on brides are just as bad.. Spraco EVO is very similar to the picture of crosa pictured i believe and its a cake to get in/out of those.. a good friend of mine had them and i had a chance to go for a ride many times.. i'll definately go bride over mugen or spoon.. afterall you are going for a seat that you want to hold you in the best possible way.. and thats bride.. no doubt in my mind.. i sat in all three seats mentioned above and owned bride's myself and with no question they have far better support.

It all depends also what car they are going in.. if you are putting them in an ITR.. you will have plenty of room for either one of the seats you choose.. if its going in a little roadster you might want to stay away from bride as it will be a realy bitch to get in/out.. the car with a roomier door jam will suite brides better.

I sold mine but i might be getting another set.. i first want to test it if they will well into a new car i decide to get, whatever that might be.. i.e. i dont want to seats to hit the doorpanel or me to have a realy difficult time to get in..

btw, i had them in my R, i weight 185 at 5.11 and i fit totally fine in the LARGE version of Zeta II. If you are anything over 170 DO NOT attempt to sit in the SMALL as you might brake it or have a really difficult time trying to get out of it. lol!

BTW, Mugen Seats, Spoon Seat, Zeal Seats are very comfortable and relaxing to sit in, they do not offer as much padding as Brides do but at least you can spread your thighs 1 freaking inch apart from each other while sitting to relax a bit.


To bride
