these would absolutely not be the right seat for you in that case

I am 5'11, 195 lbs myself. We had the Gias in our Evo for maybe 2 weeks. Ended up swapping them out for Recaro's, as I just could not get comfortable in them at all.

At 6'4, 230, I would suggest you find somewhere that offers seats to try out first, as you are going to have a much narrower range of seats to choose from

Haha nah my Nismo cloth seats are the base ones for the most part. I think for now I'm gonna put the driver seat in today or saturday - and see how I like it, maybe leave the stock nismo passenger for the wife unless I can find a trade for atleast one.

I wasn't looking to make any money for the trade, but with Mattjk's advice I might just go that route instead. Know availability?

I can't believe you hate the OEM seats so bad. You plan to sell them?

I'm sorry for leading you guys on, I'm just gonna go with the two Bride seats, I installed them this weekend, kept both to just keep it clean looking. As for the Nismo seats - I'll gladly trade those for black leather stockers if anyone wants. It will just be a pain shipping those suckers.
