Default Racing Seats for My Camaro

Im looking for a pair of racing seats for my camaro. Nothing expensive but want it to fit right not sit up too high or low. Has anyone had experience with racing seats and how is your seating position.

I have a set of Corbeau FX1 Pros for my car and I love them. There a fixed back seat though. I have a few friends with Corbeau CR1s there much more comfortable than stock Camaro seats. Iirc you sit alitttle lower but you have the capability to go back farther. Also have a frew friends with 6LE seats and they love them.

I actually have a pretty nice set for sale, they are brand new. They sit about stock height when you use the factory sliders. Just giving you a suggestion, PM me if you are interested.

Damn seats are hella expensive. Any seats 2 for 250-300 bucks tops that work just as good.

I got Corbeau Forza seats and love them. Some people don't like fixed back seats, but they work just fine for me. You can get into a set for just a little over 400$.

How did you mount your seats? The Corbeau brackets are terrible, did not fit well in my car! Had to have them modified and cut up to get the seats to fit right.

Yea my corbeau brackets fit terrible. On the driver side when it was bolted in and i sat in the car with my helmet on it hit the top of the t-top. I couldn't get the seat back far enough either to sit comfortable.

I have wolfe 6pt and i could only get the driver seat to bolt in the passenger one wouldn't even bolt into the car without modifying the seat bracket.
