You are all ****ing morons, except TE.

You wanna cheap out on a seat? Be my guest, when you plough into another car at what ever speed, I know what I want to be holding me in place...... and it aint no eBay piece of ****.

Use your brain...

and you have obviously never sat in a racing seat before , or atleast a real racing seat before. your *** doesnt move at all. high speed corners your *** stays in one spot so does your back. regular seats you slide and your back starts to lean because the seat nor the seat belt cant support the lateral G forces

they look like the Evo Recaros that are in the IX SE all they are missing is the red stiching and the word recaro on the back support

That was one thing keeping me back, and I'm guessing you're just talking about the possibility of the seats falling apart/tearing right out of the mounts? Either way, you didn't have to be such an *******. Some of us can't afford to shell out $600+ for a freaking seat like you apparently can. I asked a question for people's opinions - not for a flaming. Thanks for the opinion you gave though, delicately put as it was.

I could see them probably offering pretty good support just by virtue of the design they're copying, and I definitely couldn't see them being as comfortable as the real thing, but I would think that the area they would skimp out the most on would be safety and quality of the mounts/slides.

... you're talking about sebba, he's gonna give his opinion the only way he knows, which is being a dick lol. He's right though, if the material that built the seat is cheap good chance when you smash into another car the seat might go with you.
