Yup. I have the 18" wide seats for my big ***. I think Harlan has 16 or 17" seats in his car. I can easily can go for a couple hundred miles in them with no issues. Surprisingly comfortable given that they have no adjustment to them. You can also order them from Kirkey with the option George C. lightening holes in them.
They make a 20" wide seat for the passenger side. Harlan needed a 20" seat so he can troll the trailer parks.

I have the Corbeau FX1 in blue. http://www.thunderracing.com/images/FX1dim.jpg
Unfortunately, after about 20 minutes, my a$$ starts to hurt. There's no padding right below the tailbone on the seats, and being 6' tall, 165 lbs, I got no padding back there
It may be the angle of the install. The Corbeau rails install with the seat *really* upright, and since the seat has no tilt, you're stuck. I have shimmed the front of the rails to give some tilt, but I need to do more.

i had no problems really with the forza II's i had last year, once i got used to them i could be in them for an hour or more at a time and not be bothered.
i agree about the problem with them being really straight up and down though, that i never got used to as much. makes you feel like you're up against the steering wheel kinda.

GeorgeC's Camaro is real light now, especially considering there's no engine, trans or interior!Derek

Ditto the KIRKEYS,have driven 380 mile runs in them and they are way less tiring than the stock barn door slabs that come stock!!!
