Default Corbeaus's which one???

I'm seriously thinking of going with a set of Corbeaus for the SS, the problem I have is that it is a tan (neutral) interior so I'm thinking black is the only choice of color.

I'm trying to decide between the LG1, TRS, and CR1 and cloth or microsuede. What di you guys think?? I wouldn't mind some tan TA seats instead, I just need something to keep my head from hitting the roll bar in a fendor bender.....

Dude go to www.corbeau.com and look at products I'm leaning towards the CR1's in black microsuede myself. They pretty comfy?

I like the CR1 and TRS models. That LG series resembles a cheap knockoff IMO.

Love to have one of those as an office chair though, that'd kick ***.

I'd highly recommend you actually sit in the seats you're planning to buy beforehand.

Closest dealer is in bend and he has all the seats in stock. Price is outrageous so get them in the GP. I was quoted like $399 ea for the CR1's and then pay for shipping too, so why buy local? lol. Livernois has the special through the 25th, incredible pricing.

The other option for you is to have them upholstered to match your interior.

Keep in touch.

i have CR1s, and i absolutly love them, HOWEVER.. i could not agree more with the statement CW00BlackTA made.
70% of the people that sit in my car, love em... but that 30% really dont.. either because of size, fitment, or feel..

it would suck to spend $1200 on seats, only to find they hurt your back or something. go sit in a pair first.


btw, the black fades to a dark purple very easily. i now need mine recovered. stupid me drives with the top down too much.

Damn, that's pretty sweet. You going to custom mod it for the tunnel then lol....? I think it would look a bit better in a nice bright yellow color though.

I had done a bunch of research and was ready to order when somebody else told me the same thing. There's a shop in Bellevue that carries them. I went and sat in the seats and didn't fit at all. Saved me lots of trouble. But hey, if you've had a set already, go for it. At least compare the seat size specs to what you had before. There have been a few on the boards that have bought seats to find out they didn't fit in them.
