wats the comfiest seats to get?

sorry for the spelling if i got comfiest wrong but anyways. ive been looking around finding seats that are really comfortable but still can hold me down pretty good. ive been thinking of gettin rsx seats but they feel the same as my stock seats and the ep3s dont have that many good reviews. i started to lookin into bride brix 2 but they were out of my league in price. well ive got couple companies in mind for now and heres a list:

Sparco:
Milanos
Torino
Monza
Any others you guys can mention that remains in the real comfy zone

Recaro seats

Bride Brix 2(just putting it out there)

has anyone actually sat in any of the sparco seats like the milanos and torino and absolutely loved it cause its comfortable or as comfortable as brides. im willing to go as high 900 in price range. so shoot me some companies that suite my desires: REALLY comfy like no back pain, butt sores, or any sort of aches that can come along in a matter of minutes. still holds you down as good as racing seats. and within the price range of $900. thx

yea they are comfy but very expensive to get. i still wonder how comfy sparco monza, milano, and torino seats are. i really dont like how some seats have no back support and stiff which i definately hate.

the DC5 ITR seats are some of the most comfortable seats i've been in...too bad they cost $400-$2000 each depending if they are new or not.....ebay i've seen them for $400-$900 used...honda gave me a quote of $1956 for all the parts brand new and assembled for the integra (rsx)...

The sparco Torinos offer the most comfort out of all the seats i have had before. They are not stiff at all. You will realize once you get them that you made a good investment

OEM Seats are horrible... They would always hurt my back

I ended up getting some RSX leather seats and they are fantastic

are you on crack? or the only one that ever liked our stock seats. they are the worst pos thing put in the car next to the engine(performance wise). i would pay to have my seats destroyed cause they suck that much.

anyways yea i hear alot of good things bout the torinos and sorta thinking of gettin the seats. are the other sparco seats like monza and milanos not that good as the torinos? they look comfy but cant judge a book by its cover.

DC5 seats. also cheap.
Im rocking the RSX leather seats too.

And when I move out next May they get changed back to stock, cause I won't drive much anymore, and the RSX leather seats will be converted to be chairs in my house.

yeah I agree the OEM seats are garbage, and the RSX leathers are amazing seats. I also agree its an expensive upgrade for someone who really doesnt care

how good are the corbeaus compared to the torinos, comfort wise? might have to try those out if they are like a crazy comfy.

are these the ones? http://www.dezod.com/pd_corbeau_trs.cfm

I have red corbeau CR-1 seats and they are amazing. You slip right in and it holds you tight. One of the best things I bought for my car. Oh yeah and the quality is great. If I only knew how to post pics on this damn site.
