They look like any other racing seats out on the market. Definately not real ralli art seats (does ralli art even make seats?), but still look good.

after all my research this is what i found....
#1 ralli-art doesnt make those seats... they are cheap knockoffs. especially not for 300$... a ralli-art oil cap is like eleventy billion dollars.
seats are in important part of being safe in your car... D.A.D, tenzo, apc, and ralli-art knockoff seats are NOT D.O.T aproved because they are NOT safe.
they dont have a double locking mechanism in the tilter, or in the slider... which makes them very unsafe, and very likely to fold or rip right off the floor if you get hit hard enough...
i almost bought some tenzo seats, but decided my saftey was more important. corbeaus are the cheapest safe seats you can get, about 300$ a pop.. which is only about 100$ more than tenzo seats.
if i was you... ide buy an inflatable lumbar support and some seat covered from designcovers.com... the covered are padded, so they should feel pretty nice. and if you put the lumbar supprot(corbeau sells an inflatable one for 50$) behind the seat coveres, it should make for a pretty comfortable stock seat.
i ordered seat coveres from designcovers.com, cos ive heard alot of good stuff about them. they are custom stiched so they shoudl fit properly. ill post pics when i get them.

The most important thing about those seats you should really know is that they aren't really Ralliart seats. They're just seats with the logo stitched in.
But unless you're buying the seats for actual "rallying" purposes or trying to build a fortress to keep yourself safe, then they are good seats imo. They are just as unsafe as the other aftermarket seats around in the price range.
If safety is really a concern, there really isn't a need for racing seats. You should buy them because they look cool and because they are more comfortable than the shitty stock rs cloth seats - because anything is better than those pos's heh.
I'd buy them :)
And no, my arse has not touched them but they look just like tenzo r evos and those are quite comfortable imo

let me re-emphasize the non-saftey issue

I will mention that a certain AZ 2gnter can build custom brackets for your aftermarket seats that allow them to bolt up to your SAFE factory seat frame....
