Best Racing/Street Seats for the $$$?

[sleepy ep3]

Looking to get seats after my brake upgrade. Have been looking into Veilside seats, as they run about $850 each for the carbon-backed version. Any opinions on what's the best reputable seat for the money? I thought about Brides, but I can't see spending what they want for that.

I see a lot of guys at the track running BuddyClub seats.
They're pretty affordable too compared to their competitors of the same class.

+1, buddy club seats start at about 400 bucks per seat

I have replica Brides. so far they have held up for DD. I'd go with Buddy Club, legit seat and cheap.

From what I have seen, the Buddy Club seats dont recline. That is a big deal to me, they have to recline, as this is still a street car, barely

The need for a recline option really narrows the field, Bride


Be carefull the seat market is absolutely full of scam artists with very hard to visually recognize knockoffs. But once you get the seats the low grade construction is apparant.

Well I've narrowed it down to 3. I looked on Andy's auto sport, and I have chosen the black recaros, (the black version of the red type r seats@$1600 for both, the bride gradients, at 1700 for both, or the carbon backed veilside seats, at $1700 for both. All look like good choices. I would assume that Evasive motorsports and Andy's auto sports are reputable companies to buy from. The brides look the best, the veilsides have removable lumbar support, and the Recaros will be the best quality and an improvement from the factory seats. Any opinions?

Bump for an answer


Does anyone know anything about the tenzo seats ssusa and many other places carry? They're really quite cheap

[RedSiBaron]

Why does everyone buy from tuner brands? Did you check out jegs or summit?

Personally i think fixed backs are just as comfortable if not more...buy a kirkey seat instead of some carbon fiber deal that isn't even fia approved...

Those are basicly ebay seats, low quality and probable wont hold up in a crash,.. I was eyeing thoses a few years ago before I bought my buddy club.

Yeah I think they're made by f1spec
which makes all the replica seats in that $100-300 range

I love buddyclubs, for the price you're paying why dont you just pick up Distance's EP3R seats.
