Like the tittle says, i'm a big dude in search of a nice racing seat that is suportive, strong, comfortable, and will not cut off my circulation trying to sit in it. I'm 6'4" and built like a house. i dont care what the seat brand it is. i was hoping to go sparco or something if the size is right.
Any big guys out there with sport seats, chime in!
im 5'10" and about 250 Lbs and i use the Weapon R seats and they work out nice for me

5'10" now aboot 220 and i have the otto-r's and they fit my fat ass nice
I'm 5'10" 275 and I have the red OTTO-R's in my cavy and they feel great to me. But I've looked into Corbeu seats and they have a "WIDE" option for most of their seats.
6'3" 260lbs
most ihave tried sucked gonna have to try some otto-R's, been rocking dyed stocks for a long time.
Are the seats not wide enough, or not long enough? I'm 6' 3", and I don't have enough leg room, but I'd have to move the seat bracket further back to get more leg room.
Corbeau has many of their seats in wide chassis. Might want to check them out, not cheap though.
15.3 @ 89.97mph, 14's on the way?

6' 3", 290 pounds, also pretty stout (if it isn't obvious). I use Bride Brix in my 180SX, they were a little tight at first, but after they broke in they fit nice. Just don't get the full race with the lateral brace on the side. I tried them and those were like being stuffed into a shoe box.

so anyone have pics of the otto-r's installed? If they are a good cheap and comfortable seat then i'm all for them.
Toj Martin, I have a feeling that i'm going to end up being very tight in any seat that i get, but you think that all sport seats break in? or is it our bodys forming to the seats after a while?
not the best pic but it's all i got right now. i will try and get more later if you want

My legs are pretty bent, they rub against the steering wheel in my mustang, and in the Cavy I also touch the steering wheel. (Thank god for tilt) It's uncomfortable on long trips, but short ones are fine.
PS
I have long legs.
im 6'3 and about 350, i have ractive seats, fit great and i moved them back about 2" and down about 2" when i installed them, works perfect, now have the leg room and am not looking out of the top of the windshield. Only downside is they fabric, both driver and passenger have worn on the hip bolster, gonna lose them soon and get soemthign with better materials

Thanks for the pic, but i think those seats are a little too *loud* for me. i'm more of a subtle kind of guy.
yeah, you can get the seats in other colors, including all black, this just went real well with the color scheme i am headed towards.
Any "Large" people use aplus performance's seats? They look very similar to the pic of the otto-r seats above. I like the res synthetic leather ones they offer.
listening to this bc i too am a larger man

How about this. I'm 6'3", 32" inseam (figure that one out, folks), 280 pounds of pure midwest country butt whoopin. I ride in my buddy's VR4 with the full-race Corbeause and I fit pretty comfortably. It's a bit tight at the hips and the bottom half of my rib cage, but I don't mind when he's tossing the car into a corner at the speed of death. But yes, they have "wide" seats for us fat americans. Surprisingly, they have small medium and large sizes, his are medium. As for my Cavalier I'm going to be using the seats from an ITR. I decided on those after I rode in a Type R while I was in Japan. They're really supportive and who knew seats made for a 5'6" 130 pound Japanese guy would hold my big butt. And they're made by Recaro if I remember correctly, so they're good quality.
Anyone knows how the Yonaka seats would fit larger people? I am 6'0" 210lbs and intrested in the Ronin version.
