Help...Recaro Pole Position don't fit me well...what seats to choose ?
Hi,
I need a pair of lightweight seats for my (daily-driver) e90 335i primarily for weight reduction purposes and secondary because the sport seat hip bolsters are killing my hips. I am 5'7" and 210-220lbs. My back is very wide due to bodybuilding. It was a huge disappointment for me to test fit Recaro Pole Position seats and find out that they do not fit me well in the back and shoulder area. They fit me perfectly at the hip and leg area though I have tested the Sparco Evo 2 and it fits me perfectly at the shoulder and back, but it's too narrow for my taste at the hips. I was looking at Recaro SPG XL seats, but I don't like the fact that they are 40% heavier than the Pole Positions and they also cost significantly more. Does any of you have any recommendations of nice looking, lightweight aftermarket bucket seats ? Thanks ! |

Wait let me get this straight.....you are wanting weight reduction mods and are 5'7"/220 lbs? I think Jenny Craig makes some nice seats. I'm kidding man, I'm a big dude too, 6'2"/215, I have trouble finding some comfortable seats. I have the same proplem, they fit my waist but not the shoulder area. I'm interested in seeing what people suggest.
