The JDM Evo 8 seats have the same shape, btw. Just not the leather and alcantara. Those are the narrow seats for skinny asian people. If you are a fat white guy, I'd look elsewhere...

Yes, those are the JDM seats also available in Europe, unfortunately the US versions will not provide the same level of support.

I'd much rather have the jdm mr seats. In my opinion the leather quality on the IXs recaros did not look so great, plus the material seems like it clashes too much for me.

1st picture in this thread = JDM Evo IX seats
"Burningmoney97" picture = USDM Evo IX seats

Same materials, similar design, but USDM ones offer less dramatic side and cushion bolstering and a wider seat base (for lard asses).

Yeah, the bastards, I'm shaped like a skinny small asian guy, they should've made it an option: Fatass American seats.... and Americans-who-are-more-Asian-than-others seats (that's right, I'm an egg!!! {white on the outside, yellow on the inside})
