Racing seat that will fit a fat man?

[460cidpower]

I have a cloth seats track pack '13 that I daily drive (25k miles a year, lots of long road trips too) and I want to lose some weight off the 3,600lbs it's at now. :rockon:

I read supposedly racing style seats could shave some weight. I'm 5'9 with a 32" waist, but sometimes I let my dad borrow my car and he's 6' with a 48" waist. :dw:

Is there a comfortable seat that will fit the both of us and allow me to drop some weight off the car?

I like these: Corbeau: FX1 Pro but it says it only fits up to a 42" waist. :bored:

Awesome looking seat and I know they said it's comfortable but I have my doubts. You spend a lot of time in the car so you better be sure you like them before buying them. It's a shame you can't go somewhere and try them out before you buy them.

Yeh, I was hoping someone could chime in and tell me what seats they like.

 

[460cidpower]

Lol, I guess everyone here is fit like me

I have one of those on my race car passenger side. I would not try to put a 46" wasist in it.

What about one of these: Corbeau LG1 Mustang Racing Seat (Wide) - Black (Set of 2) 25501w||kit - Free Shipping!

Looks the the previous poster found you a seat. However, it might be too wide for an average sized guy. Not trying to be a dick, but it might be a good idea to get your dad on a diet.

Lol, I know. I've tried for many years to get him to work out like I do. I go to the gym 2 hours a day, every day just so I don't wind up like him

Hell he sounds like he fits like I do. I just use the door and center console to hold me and at the same time lol.

I have a the LG1 wide with a 44 waist. This seat should fit both of you

Thank you very much, that's what I wanted to hear

Does anyone know what my stock seats are worth? Will they fit an '01?

whats the weight savings?

 

[Slammintone]

Don't know if this helps but I'm 5'11" and 310lbs and Recaros feel comfy enough to me. Additionally I have 6 herniated discs in my neck and thoracic spine and I'm 47. I don't have Recaros but I've sat in them and wouldn't object to them. Good luck

This may be the way to go for you. I have used the clubman version of this seat and the quality is top drawer. Good luck.

Factory seats are 100lbs, pair of Corbeaus are ~54lbs.
