Just make sure the back support is proper and comfortable. Thats first off, second make sure you can hook up a seat belt without having to bolt one to your floor!!

Most of these racing seats are absolute junk. They are not crash tested and buckle at the moment of impact. I would strongly recommend NOT getting anything like these.

Why do you need racing seats?

Cobra, Bride, Recaro, some OEM stuff (like ITR seats, etc) would all be good.
