Default Tan interior question

I havea tan interior with tan leather, and the leather is getting worn down, so im trying to conserve it by getting some seat covers. here is what I found, what color do you think would best match my interior?

I know the seat covers have black on them, but since I have black ford floor mats, I think the black accent will be ok.

I've always been told to not cover leather that it needs to breathe. I have also never seen anyone cover leather either.

IF you're gonna cover them, I'd go with the beige..closer to tan than the other colors..

well, how much money do u have to spend on this, if ur gonna get seat covers, get what looks the best in the interior, i would suggest a light tan with a dark tan seat cover, but thats just throwin out some ideas, if u have a lil chunk of change you could replace the seats, or just get the actual part that u sit on re-upholstered...

I wouldn't cover leather. Like gt96stang said leather needs to breath. what you need to do is get some leather conditioner like meguires what cleans and protects. That is what I would do
