Corbeau Racing seats

Anyone have or know about these seats? They make them in microsuede. Pretty solid price, only 265 per seat.

The Forza should fit fine. I almost got one, but I wanted a seat that was FIA homologated so I went with the Momo Start 2007. Corbeau has FD specific rails for their seats as well.

Cool, thanks guys! I think I'll go with the A4 going to need a seat that can recline. I can't imagine driving for long periods of time sitting upright.

What's the most comfortable fabric to be sitting on? Microsuede might be a bitch to clean but is it comfy on a car seat?

I plan on removing the back seats completely what's the easiest way to install racing harnesses? They should just bolt down where the rear seat used to be right?

I have the A4 seats in my FC right now. They are pretty comfy after getting used to racing seats rather than factory seats. In any event, they sit pretty high on the interior. My passenger seat actually needs to be slid all the way back and slightly reclined in order to not rub on the side of the car itself. Also, the fabric tore from standard wear and tear on the driver seat where it rubs on you as you get in and out.
