URS4 seats uncomfortable - replacements?

[jaychen]

Not sure if its just me but found my B5 sport seats far more comfortable. My Polo GTI seats were a step above. The URS4 seats seem very uncomfortable, no lumbar support.

My question is, im an amateur bodybuilder so finding seats that i fit in is hard.

My waist is quite small, but the size of my legs and shoulders makes it hard to find seats. EVO recaros are too small, i sit on top of the bolsters. I assume DC5 integra seats would be the same..

Anyone else had this problem? What seats did they find?

Stats: I'm only 5'11'' but weight about 220lbs (100kg) and hardly any fat.

If they are from a UrS4 they should have lumbar support.

You will probably find all Recaros too small for you - I am tight in mine across my back and I'm not a big guy. As above you should have adjustable lumbar support on the URS4 seats. You can get B5 seats to fit pretty easily IIRC, I am sure someone on the forum did this recently.

I'll look into the B5 seats..

Thanks mate

Anyone had any luck with Corbeau seats? They seem to offer a wide range of sizes (made is USA if im not mistaken)

[Error404]

If they are made in the US they should suit the larger gentleman

Some shops have seats you can try in the shop. Also corbeau (or resellers) etc sometimes attend modified car shows with a range of seats on show you can have a seat in.

You can buy wider versions of some seats, but its wider waist as well.

The B5 seats are not so bad, the side bolsters only come up so far and it lets your lats/shoulders sit against the flat top section, that might change with torso length though?

[jaychen]

I've had a B5 with sport seats.

Really liked them

Will see what it takes to retrofit them.

B5 seats in C4 should be the same story as C4 seats in B4 - just swap lower frame. Friend did this in reverse - C4 Recaro's in his B5 by swapping frames.

Interesting.

Thanks for the info guys
