Mazdaspeed seat vs. OEM seats

Mazdaspeed seat vs. OEM seats
1. Are they as comfortable as the OEM's?
2. Do they rub on the doors or on the side under the armrest?
3. Do they sit higher?
I ask this because I am considering buying them, but I want them to be as comfortable as the OEM's, and I'm also thinking about it because they don't have the easy recline lever. As some know I did have one seat installed (yenako) but they rubbed, so I have them up for sale. any info is welcome!
Thanks!

i've sat in them and they're pretty comfy...for the money though...personally i think you could find a better looking seat like a sparco or something...but hey its a style thing, to each his own

I have them in black and and very happy with them.
1. They are actually Corbeu seats and are very comfy. There is lots of sidebolstering to keep you in the seat around turns without needing to use your knee to brace yourself. I've done several long roadtrips in them and they did not become uncomfortable at any time.
That said, I don't think bigger guys would be very comfy in them.
2. There is acyaully more space between the door and transmission tunnel since they are narrower overall than the OEM seats mainly due to the near vertical bolstering vs. the spread out bolsters on the OEM seats.
3. They sit a hair lower overall.
These seats are $800 each and took me almost a year to receive after sending in my non-refundable "deposit" to Corksport. I would have preferred true racing seats (fixed back) but have a convertable that is still driven on the street and I need easy access to the rear and without having the rear hatch meant I needed to be able to fold the seats up.

I like the white one... I just dont like MAZDASPEED being written that big.. It turns me off... besides that the seat is pimp.. But I love Bride seats. They make nice quality seats for reasonable prices.
