Really UNCOMFORTABLE for driving any distance. Only worth the discomfort for track.

That is just not true - I am reading a book now from the guy who won the 68' Targa about high performance driving - first chaper is on the seats and he says over and over that being confined does not equate to being uncomfortable...he references race car seats being vert confined yet in races like the 24 drivers often drive for 4-5-6 hours at a stretch... he even said after winning the 68 Targa that he wished the race could go on forever because he was so connected to the car (felt as one) and so comfortable.....

I have seen several recent posts state that GT3 seats (or other confining) are not good for long trips - I hollar B.S. - a good fitting seat is required and if the seat fits you, its comfortable.... if not then YES - any trip would be no fun. GT3 seats fit many people, and dont fit many more....comfort is all about fit

+1.... def less tiring on the track with these.

The question is, are they tolerable for daily driving ? they do look good

I have sat on similar ones before and there is leaning front/back option. Also, if you have big shoulders/back you will have some issues. I did.

mine were - but as with anything with "unknown" MFGR - the proof will be in the pudding - I actually preferred the GT3 seats for daily driving over the stock.

No-go for a daily driver...tough to constantly get in and out....

the Sports Buckets are a nice compromise between a street and track seat ... and IMHO much more comfortable than the 996 Recaros ... they are also priced nicely between the recaros and the RoW CS CF buckets ...

They're gonna look good. I have broad shoulders and I fit just fine in them, also am 6'2" and no issues there. Only issues are hard to check really quick over your shoulder when making a lane change.

I have a set of ones for sell just like these ones, exact same ones, bought them to put into my project car however had a change of plans. If anyone is interested, PM me and I'll get you pics, price, etc.
