get a seat FIA approved. that is a must IMO.

i have Sparco evo 2 U.S. TECH seats. 18lbs each. i custom made my base mounts and have a total of 21 lbs per set, base, hardware. stock was around 47 or 48 i believe.

comfort IMO is great. as you know sparco makes different sizes. mine fit me very well, are adjustable, and very soft. and they are very solid when mounted to the car.

 

Do they make seats for taller people since im about 6''6'

 

just sat in some evo 2 seats. agreed they are quite comfortable for buckets. I think they are almost as comfy as my roadster seats.

 

After a crazy amount of research I made a seat purchase. I decided I didnt want to sacrifice comfort by using a fixed seat. I took my sparco roadster out of my yellow car and weighed it. its a 15.5lb seat from factory. but with slider and mount brackets the seats weigh 24.5lbs. I played with adding padding and they can definitely be made more comfy. but it is no where near as comfy as factory recaro. and pretty difficult to get out of. for the most part the lightest aftermarket reclining seat I could find are the cobra misano at 24lbs. but pricey new. and by the time its in the car with sliders and brackets it gonna be at 32lbs. I think there are some ebay seats that weigh 23lbs. but found far too much feedback of the seats braking. and not a huge saving from my current 41lbs recaros. which by the way weigh 30.5lbs without tracks mounted. What I bought are honda delsol seats from 96-97 base model. they are the lightest reclining seat I could find. they weigh a scant 27lbs with mounts and seat belt latch. my plan is to recover and tweak them to match and look more sporty. they are super compfy. the backs are very thin. IE more leg room for back seat. and factory strong. the early version 93-95 are possibly made by recaro. but after driving two hours to actually weigh some myself they are not as light at 31.5lbs. dont know how the same seat design can be 4lbs light on the late version and I dont really care. 1 am just happy to find a comfy recliner that is going to shave over 28lbs from my bottom line.
