If your car isn't a race car don't put racing seats in it. This is real life not fast and the furious.

speaking from experience.. my cobra seats are some of the most comfortable I've ever been in. after driving a 2 or so hours in my GT, my lower back starts to hurt a little bit (and I'm a young in-shape fellow!). but for my cobra seats, 10 hours road-trip, I was driving the whole time... I felt great.

Anything is better than our stock seats. He said he didnt care about bolstering. Only comfort. And if he drives it on the twisties than it couldnt hurt anything.

I was looking into the summit seats until I sat in one, they aren't all that comfortable. I would recommend looking into a set of bride ergo II's as they are comfortable as hell and most likely what I'd have. I ended up with a set of black/black termie seats because of the adjustability of the seats.

I have not sat in Summit seats, but was gonna mention exactly this. TRY any seat you plan to run in your ride. Going on a long road trip with uncomfortable seats flat out sucks! I can ride in mine for hours and hours and remain comfortable.

The second is support and why I purchased my Recaro's. Those Summit seats appear to do almost nothing to keep you securely in your seat if you get to aggressive driving. I have been through the AX course a couple times when I had forgotten to use my seat belt. I had absolutely ZERO movement, as the seats held my 100% firm on the entire runs.


Of course... these are abit more expensive than the Summits!

That what happens to me too, looks like to need to start saving even more now. Cause I hate the seats in this car with a passion.
