Default Which of these two seats?

I am trying to pick a new pair of front seats. The car is Navy Blue Metallic. It has tan interior that is going to be switched to Ebony Interior panels and T/A door Panels. The seats will be reskinned in a light saddle leather, along with the doors and back seats. I might do this immediately, just depends on how crazy my LS7 and wheel budget gets. I have Sparco Torinos in my Z28, they are too small and I am getting even bigger, so I am leaning towards the Chrono seat as they are wider than the Monza's. I want a contrasting interior like in the Z28 but less garish for the SS since its my daily driver.

The Chrono, now with photoshop tan



The Monza


The Z's interior

I like stock 10 times better than any aftermarket seats. But If I had to choose i'd go with the Chrono.
