I had those.....I didnt like them.

They look nice, but they felt flimsy. When driving, I would bounce around cause the seat back wasnt stiff. It felt like if I lean back hard enough, the seat would snap in half.

I sold them and bought S2K seats.

Definately will.... I guess these seats are a no go anyway though considering the feedback from the people that actually tried them out.

There are plenty of seats out there that are safer and not that much more money. Especially if you don't have a need to recline.

if you only want one seat you can find Sparco sprints for under 300 and they work GREAT plus theyre comfortable.

just out of curiosity, all of you giving comments on how "safe" they are....have you actually owned the seats?

there was another thread today on "fake" or "replica" seats and it got way out of hand, let's try not to let that happen again.

could someone please provide some accident reports or first hand (not hear-say) experiences of how "unsafe" these seats are?
