they're only 130$ so that makes me think that they are constructed a little cheaply. I've never heard of them, but that price makes me think that something is up with them

i got some sparco knock-off from ebay and they are great. i was really surprised. i expected some halfass pos of 289$ shipped, but they are nice. ive had them for about a year now and they havent faded or broke or anything.

Im really not expecting incredible Sparco-like quality, I just want to replace my ugly-beat up stockers.

so if there roughly the same quality as stock, works for me. : )

scheistermeister

thats why i got them, because my stock seats looked like ****. whenever people see them they think they are real sparco ones though. and they are very comfy!

scheistermeister

r they in an FC? (your car)?

if so, how hard was the install?

scheistermeister

yup they are in my FC. i would have posted pics but i only have a camera phone and the garage is too dark right now. they fit great. and installing them wasnt too hard, although you have to make custom rails or you have to use spacers on the outside of the passanger seat if you stick with the stock rails.

with everyone talkking about seats i was wondering if anyone has any thoughts or experiences with tenzo racing seats.....i can get them for about 200 a pair shipped so i was going to get them to replace my stock seats.....im also not going for the sparco feel but i do want something thats dependable...thx..... also ive never heard of Otto-R but from my experience with racing bucket seats...they are made of sheet metal, fiberglass, or cf and they have a steel tube that goes makes the form.....then they just weld it together and put in foam.....so i dont see how much of a difference each seat can be besides the materials and the perfection of the welding....alright thanks...parker

i've heard Tenzos are kinda wide. but im sure there durable, i mean the company has been around 4 awhile. they wouldnt still b selling seats if no one liked them

check out the Sport Compact Car issue from sometime last year... they did a HUGE seat review. i bet there site has the backissue.

scheistermeister

i had the tenzo-r seats in my civic and i loved them! those were the first racing seats i had. they are a little wider than the other ones ive had, but as long as you arent as little as me(28" waist 108lbs 5'5") it doesnt matter. one thing i really liked was that the sides of the seats came up REALLY high. the first time i got in them i hit my *** on it and it hurt like a bitch. the high sides also makes them a little harder to get out of too.
