Ok these sparco seats are the best looking seats i have ever seen. But i was wondering with the things on the top if those would be legal? It DOES say there competition seats so are tehy street legal or not?

i would say no , i think pigs would mess with you about the top of the seats obstructing your vision....
 
thats what i thought, and it would kinda be hard to look like behind you wihtout using your rearview mirros and crap
 
Those things are hideous. What's even the point? To keep your head steady when in the break-neck speed of a car that probably runs low 17's?

I don't have a problem with a nice set of racing seats, even if they are striclty for show...but those are just a little excessive.
 
Its called rally... There is no point at all on the street, but in harsh racing conditions it would be nice to have the head bolsters. The other thing you have to consider is if you want to have access to the back seat, you have to have some seat that reclines (sparco milano). As for being illegal, I don't think so, but like people have said its just another thing for the pigs to harass you about.

Thank you Misundaztood, and i would not put em in my N/T i am jsut wonderin for when i get my AWD, AND i think they look cool, whats the point of the gid "ears", there is none...i jsut think they look cool

Im Josh, Not Grant :thumb:
 
The point of those "ears" are to make sure your helmet-head doesn't go bouncing everywhere offroad.

Useful in a rally car, retarded on the street when you're doing lane changes/left turns/etc.
 
That is the ugliest thing I have ever seen in my life.

I don't even think I can bring myself to say anything nice at all right now, and usually I'm not a hater.

On the other hand, if I were to race off-road, I would certainly want the "safest" thing on the market, and that *looks* safe...
 
i dont think they look that bad but i realy do think that the side things would get on your nerve quikly when changing lanes and backing up. but if you can handle that, go for it
