What seats should I get for my 8!?

Ok guys so my evo8 seats are shot. I've been looking around and just looking to see what seats are out there, in your guys opinion what would be a good seat for me? I'm 5' 11 and 165 pounds so I'm not a big guy. The seats that really caught my eye so far are the evo 8 jdm seats. Where would I be able to get them? Is there a vendor on here that can get them? Thanks in advance

I'd get a nice Bride seat for the driver only and call it a day :-)
Ravspec was recently advertising a bunch of bride seats in stock too.
Gl!

Look into the Cobra seats, I sat in quite a few models in the showroom, and fitment was great.
I'm 6'2, 233lbs, great shoulder space, excellent hip space, fit like a glove !
Yes the seat comes in different sizes.
Im just saving so I can buy 2 seats at once, my 8 seats have died and gone to heaven as well..

Just another option for you, bride seats are baller, but anybody in there right mind will not spend 2 geez on 1seat, some people got it like that..

Sparco are great seats as well, sprint 5 seats, brackets, mounts, hardware, you looking @$800-$1100 dollars both seats, fyi they are bucket seats

Reclining seats are a totally different ball game, better off finding clean 9 seats

Hope this helped, peace..

Clean 9 seats then, by the time whoever sells them to you are done with you $900-$1400, you could have gotten a BRAND NEW PAIR of seats for the same amount, or buy one seat at a time, get the one you really like

If you plan on keeping the car for a long while, make the investment, and make it yours, the way you want it

You have plenty of options, keep that in mind

Brides are like sitting in a coffin, and hard to get out of.
