Default Seats. Momo, Sparco, Recaro

I plan on buying new seats pretty soon, mine are ripped.

Want to spend no more than 400 on each seat.

What would be your pick?

Sparco?
Milano?

Recaro?
Black ones? on Group Buy for 475. I can do that

Momo?
Championship?

Any others?

With the money you want to spend i'd look into "Carbaeu" a4s.

tenzo r 440 shipped for 2

and....WHO CARES IF THEY ARE NOT TRENDY "RECARO" there is no need for racing seats in your car all the time anyway. Real men buy 1 non reclinable BLACK seat and only put it on raceday and take out afterwards

LOL! Milanos for less than 400 a seat, that's hilarious. Try 400 for half a seat I'd personally go with some recaro SRD's, corbeau carerras, or corbeau A4's.

Well it that's your feeling about it, then whey don't you go buy some OBX or NEX seats, they're even cheaper....

No thanks, I'll stick with KNOWN quality and FIA certified seats.

Tenzo, OBX, APC, NEX, etc....

Recaro, Bride, Sparco, Momo, etc...

I voted for Sparco's. I've sat in recaros and the only complaint I had was that plastic piece (where the harnesses go thru) is in the perfect place to hit me in the back of the head. So I would recomend you go to a shop or find people that have them so you can check them out in person before droppping the cash on them
