Default big *** aftermarket seats

So for all us out there that got "more to love" around their belts what seats do you sit in if aftermarket at all?
I hear of Memfab making wider buckets, but have yet to see a picture of them due to a server being down, heh if you hosted w/us we'd not have that prob.
But yeah, corbeau TRS seems like a nice reclineable in the wide version.

It's a shame recaro srd's don't come wider, but whatever, post up more pics as well.

40" pants size wants somethin nicer that the crx stocker

There was an episode of Unique Whips where a more rotund, robust, enhanced male individual purchased a Viper but was unable to fit in the seats comfortably. So what he did was have them remove the bolsters from the sides and put the fabric back over the seats and it looked stock, was cheaper than getting new seats, and it was comfortable for the corpulent consumer.

He then proceeded to loose control of the car while leaving UW and jump a curb and mess up the car a bit LOL.

How big are Bride Zeta III's, exactly? I've heard they don't fit comfortably for anyone over a 32 inch waste.

any year of integra seats are going to be a lot more supportive or comfy than civic/crx seats not sure if they can handle someone of your girth though.

The seats we use for larger people are Sparco Evo 2 or Evo L which is 1 1/4" wider than the Evo or the Evo 3 which is 2" wider than the Evo. We use Sparco seats exclusively because of their price and they withstand the abuses of offshore racing without flinching.

Im 6'2" 265 lbs and i fit in the Evo 2 the best although i would use an Evo 3 for a street car where i want comfort over support.

Definetely, you should see me try to shove my *** into the regular evos when i have to water test I have a 40" waist and the Sparco EVO 2 and 3 are the only seats i fit in at all. We had some Memory Fab cf seats in the shop and i couldnt get my hips into them AT ALL. We just use the Sparcos and recover them to meet the customers needs.

evo2 & 3 sounds ideal, but it's a daily driver out and about in hot traffic
suddenly my stockers w/their lil tear in the bolster doesn't bother me too much

The memfab seat do you mean regular width? Supposedly they have large & in charge versions too but their server was down last time I checked so I don't know.

In additon to the Evo 2/3, Recaro makes a larger version of their SPG which is also 3.5cm wider...the spg xl.

That being said, the Recaro seats are a bit narrower than the Sparcos to begin with.
