Default Looking to replace my seats...

Need opinions from the minions....
Stock seats are not an option due to impending 4 point harness usage. And my current seats are crap. I pulled the covering off one of them and found that the structure of the seats is very thin, very cheap metal tubing... Not something I trust my life to in an accident.



Check these out.

the structural rigidity looks more apparent in seat#2 "Ares" however, do these seats come with specs? link?
