Default Corbeau forza or fx1 pro

Cant decide. Im 5 10 so height isnt a factor

But anyways ive contacted several people who love both these seats, im just wondering if anyone had some pics installed and personal testimonies?

Also i cant decide if i want suede or cloth.
I deleted my rear seats (simple carpeted box) so i dont have to worry about them matching

Like I said before if you're intending to use these with a 6pt cage the fx1's will not fit unless its a custom cage built to accomidate the seats. That's why I got the forzas instead. I even moved my seats over an inch to fit better with the cage.

I had the Forzas for a while, had no complaints. No pictures though. I had to shim the front of the brackets so that the seat would lay back to suit me. I recently switched to Kirkey pro drag seats simply for weight savings. I will say though that the Kirkey is a more comfortable seat than the Corbeaus though IMO.

That's just my opinion. The pro drags with the covers are VERY comfortable to me. No problems with long drives at all. I'm not sure in the price if the fx1, but the forZa with the corbeau brackets are prices about the same as the kirkeys with cover and racecraft brackets. It's something I would seriously consider if I was you merely for the weight savings. Judging by your signature, you obviously are performance oriented.. Why not get some bad *** seats and save a solid 40# in the process??

If he's referring to the fabbed aluminum seats with a fabric cover I highly doubt that's even possible. The corbeaus have a good amount of cushion and fit well.

That's exactly what I'm talking about..

The "fabric cover" is padded throughout the entire seat and features a raised part between knees. If you look up threads where people are using them, you'll find most people will agree with me in saying that the seats are very comfortable.

I'm not ******* corbeau or anything, but my vote goes to Kirkey.
