Guys, if you are running any fixed back seats, i'd love to see some photos of your interiors.

Fixed back only please.

Looking to ask people for actual feedback of their setups. If they liked/disliked them. Was it worth it etc

Why was that A?

Just not comfortable.
I could understand if if you tracked the car every weekend but not ideal for daily.
My friend has them in his 2.7 B7 and they're not my cup of tea.

What's your purpose to get them?

Also I thought I'd get more head room with having them and I only gained about 1" due to not having the seat reclined like it use to be.

B5 rs4 seats are fucking heavy and slippery as shit.

I need my belt done up extremely tight to hold me in when running through the twisties.

So main two reasons are weight and to hold me in.

If i had to hazard a guess at the weight of one rs4 seat, I'd say 20-30kg.

I'd find someone who has fixed back seats and go for a hour drive.

i love mine and my car is a "daily"
have taken two road trips 8hrs (one way) last month and this past weekend 12hrs (one way) in mt fixed back seats. i had no issues and was compfrtable. the biggest issue i see is if youd ont fit comfortably it will be awful. im lucky taht i fit in fixed back seats perfectly so no complaints here

good call.

i'd say a perfect fit is paramount to making them comfortable.

i'll go sit in a bunch of different seats and see what i come up with.
