I've not been able to find these anywhere, it would seem Recaro has retired these dimensions/measurements off their website for the EVO 8/9 seats.

If anyone with stock Recaros (8/9) in their car doesn't mind doing some measurements it would help me decide if I should go for stock EVO 8/9 seats, or an after-market seat. I have door bars in the car that are going to eliminate the amount of room for the upper bolsters. A few after-market seats I have in mind will fit but I'd like to keep things stock if possible.



I'm looking for B, C, D and F in particular.

Thank you!

 

B-21"
c-24"
d-20"
f-36"

 

Thank you very much!!!

I can already say that these are going to fit much better. As long as B is less than 22" and C is between 22-24" (plus there are lowering brackets), they should fit no problem!

What are your thoughts on the comfort level of the stock Recaros?

 

They are alright I don't drive more then 60 miles a day .but I'm not expecting more from it. I know it's not a captain seats lol.

Haha ya I mean im not expecting them to change my life or something, but if they are generally touted as decently comfortable, i might opt for stockers vs. an after-market bucket seat. For what you pay for a used set I think they're good value.

The only issue is that I will need a provision made to them to support a 6-point harness. I'll do some reading tonight and see what I can find about accommodating this need if using stock Recaros.

 

For anyone interested, it's not difficult to modify the stock Recaros to accommodate a 5th or 6th sub belt off a harness (some details on this here: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/mo...es-merged.html), but it seems a real shame to rip them up.

For this reason, although it would seem these would fit nicely in my car with the roll bar/door bars, I'm probably better off sourcing a proper bucket seat designed for a 6 point harness. Reclinable seats for racing I've been told aren't very safe, either.

 

Subjectively speaking, I find them very comfortable (5'8", 175lbs)
