Ion Redline Seats vs. Aftermarket seats

[richsoucie]

how do you guys think the redlines seats would compare to these http://www.speedwaremotorsports.com/...aroSEseats.asp reason i ask is i have a chance to pick up either one for about the same price.

i dont remember sitting in a better seat than the one in my redline and i have sat in a fair amout of seats, (Detroit Auto Show) every car they would let me in and the RL was the best for seats, well racing seats, the caddys have really confy seats

both recaro tho so i dont know it prob gonna be a look thing and i personally like the 2 tone look

I like the seats in the car now......good enough for everyday driving but the support there when you need it

It doesn't sound like your putting them in a RL so I'll give my opinion.

When they are setup right they are great. I have had lots of problems with alignment of the seats and there is limited adjustments possible. With the form-fitting style (and my bad back) you really notice when there is a seat alignment problem. A plus over the non-RL seats is the 6 way adjustments, alowing you to raise and lower the seat.

why would you want to change our recaro racing seats...their awesome!

He doesn't have a Red Line. So he'd be going from the ION QC stock crappy seats to seats that are a thousand times better.

You can raise and lower the seat in the Redline too... it goes front/back/up/down and leans forward and back... pretty adjustable to me...

[Nukem]

mine moves up and down as well

[Kirtsky]

He said "non-RL seats". Do the standard QC seats not go up and down?

The sedan loaner that i had did the exact same adjustments as the Redline.
