Default Bride or Sparco

Buying new seats with my tax refund and was wondering who makes the better seat in terms of quality and fabric, Bride or Sparco?

not sure, mostly comes down to preference.. i would get a higher quality low-mid brand seat before id waste that much money on bride or sparco.



aren't the cheapest sparco/bride seats like 300$+ and not very comfortable? then you need brackets.. so 700$+ for seats.. crazy..

I've sat in the Torino, and they were pretty sweet, but I wouldn't pay $600 for one.



You can get those Sparco for 10% off through Havoc, Inc.

Or like Regit and I you can get a set of leather Rsx seats and call it a day lol! Cheap comfy, and they look nice!



And cost maybe 400 with custom brackets to mount them to the Tib!

Is the Corbeau Forza even a decent seat? I have a pair of EVOs in the other car and they are superb, but all the reviews of the Forza dog on it like no tomorrow. I would think they would compare to the Sparco Fighter.

another good seat idea are srt-4 seats, which are based off the viper seats... they are actually decently comfy on longer rides (drove 3200 miles round trip to MI and back) and they really hold you in the seat.
