Porsche seat comfort
Im 6'2" 210 pound with wide shoulder, 34" waist.
I find the seats on my 964 not very comfortable.
I wonder if the early style Recaro sport seat are more comfortable. What do you guys think?, Has anyone change there seats for better comfort.
Don't get me wrong a like lateral support, just that my seat fell to narrow for me.
BTW, my car is DD, street racer, no track car.
Love the look of the Singer seats, but those are obviously not for sale.
here are my seat, the early recaro and the singers

I about your size (about 15 pounds heavier) and find the seats quite comfortable - that said, once my bolsters wear a bit more I'm probably going to go with the sport seats as I like the support of the bigger bolsters. I was also looking at various Recaro options. Interested to hear from others.
I remember there being a thread about "bigger guys" and comfortable recaros for the track...

I'm 6-3 225lbs and it took a few modifications to get comfy in my car. I removed the seats and reinstalled them in the rear most mounting holes. That gave me an extra inch or two of leg room. I also installed a MOMO Mod07 steering wheel. This wheel is dished and moved the steering wheel closer to me and allowed my knees to go where the steering where used to be. With these two modifications I was able to adjust the seat just right to feel comfortable. I drove from LA to SF and back in mine along PCH with no problems.

I am about the same size and I think the stock seats in my 1990 are probably my favorite seats of any car I have ever owned. Just shows how we are all different. Perhaps your seats have some loose or broken inner supports?
