Default Want opinions on racing seats

Im lookin into racing seats, im leanin towards the brides, but I kinda like the recaros, im 6foot and 190 lbs lol, I want somethin with more support with a 4 point but some the ones ive seen dont look like they have enough support . But I want the ones that recline cuz itll be for daily and track use... I have not sat in any racing seats so im kinda lost in this area, so any opinions would help, thanx

For the money you absolutely cannot beat the Sparco Milano 2's. Great for big people like us too! (I'm 6'3" 225lbs)

I'm about 6'2 185lbs and I have a sparco evo 2 in my rx7 and I love it. It doesn't recline though. Not a problem for me since my FC isn't my DD so I don't know if that will work for you or not.

The Sparco Milano 2's are supportive but very comfortable, they have memory foam. Check out this review for all the adjustability details

It's actually a pretty comfortable seat. But for your situation I would recommend something that reclines and good lumbar support.

CORBEAU!!! lol they have awesome seats and options for everything. i would HIGHLY recommend checking them out. they will send you material samples too if you want. if you opt for seats with leather or suede, you can also buy the raw material from them if you want to match the seats wth the rest of your interior cloth. check out the GTS II seats!
