Default Race Seats for TALL drivers~ HELP

I need some help. Hopefully someone even has some equipment for-sale! Perhaps some feedback!

I am looking at two seats:

Recaro Profi XL's or
Racetech RT4009 Talls

Are these possible to be mounted LOWER than the stock seats?

Thanks all!

How tall? Weight?

I'm 6'3-6'4, 215. I have Sparco Ergo Mediums (Larges are too big for most cars with consoles and door panels). Added bonus is that they are the only seats on the market with detachable halos in case the car is still street driven.

You can certainly get it lower with some fabrication. I ran my Spec Miata with four bolts through the seat bottom and floor!

Love the Recaro (I'm 6'5" 200)
