In terms of quality, there is no question that Sparco is better than Tenzo R. But if you want Sparco, you're gonna have to shell out some cash.

Sparco are better quality, but Tenzo are more comfortable and you are actually encased in the seat. Tenzo has big side bolsters and hip support.

I've liked all the tenzos I've sat in more than sparcos just in terms of comfort

i had tenzos in for awhile, and they were nice. they were kinda hard to get in and out of though, so i took them out. they felt great on sharp turns... but yeah, if you have the dough go with sparcos, but if not, tenzos will do...

i got tenzo and i like them better then oem's. They do keep you in your seat and have great support, but like "GREEOT" stated its hard to get in and out but you get used to it.

I had a sparco sprint and i think it's pretty good maybe i am not that big 120lb but i think the tenzo r is a little bit more softer and slighty bigger
