I'm going to start shopping for my own 2022 718 GT4 in the next 2-3 weeks and I'm still on the fence for the LWSB, I'm 5'8" 200lbs and it seems that many people my size like them, I also saw that you can mod the tilt if you find the backrest to be too upright. I will most likely option them and resell them if they're unbearable.

I've decided not to get the PCCB, I really struggle to see the value there for a car I will mainly street drive and track occasionally.

I'm in Québec, I'm wondering how long I'm going to have to wait for an allocation... spring 2022 would be a good timing for me, I can then drive my BRZ through the winter and sell it when I get the GT4.

Did 4.5 hours straight (300 miles) in my LWBS yesterday, with a herniated disk in my lower back. Zero stops. No problems, fantastic support. Love these seats.

Welcome. The biggest advantage of PCCB seems to be the absence of brake dust. Not worth the money to me.
Allocations are extremely tight. I would talk to the three Montreal area dealers as well as Quebec City and Mark Motors in Ottawa to see if there is some sort of a consensus on when an allocation might become available. I would keep track of the relevant threads in the Canadian section of Rennlist as well. If an allocation comes up, be ready to jump right away.
