Opinions on aftermarket seat options
I’m looking for opinions on aftermarket seat options for our JK. Our JK is not a daily driver. We tend to do lots of longer trips and not much hardcore wheeling.
I’m looking at the Corbeau GTS II seats right now. Any opinions on this seat or others we should consider would be welcome.

just purchased and installed front Smittybilt xrc seats on my 07 JK Wangler X. I mounted the seats to the stock seat frames. Had to lengthen the middle hole slot on the seat in order to bolt the seat to the stock frame. Then cut the front tip of the seat frame in an angle so that there's enough space to lift seat adjusment lever to move your seat forward and back. The seats are nice, kinda stiff, maybe needs alittle break in time.

I looked at those and the mastercraft at 4 wheel parts, I was not really impressed.
I saw the Sparco brand at Desert Rat. They are much more comfortable. They have lumbar adjustment as well as a better micro adjustment for the body incline angle. Too bad the stupid manager kept telling me how much I would hate them. Before and while I was sitting in them, he kept saying how I would hate them. So I'll probably just buy them online.

Whatever you go with make sure you sit in them before you pull the trigger. I just tried out some LG1s and was very impressed. Most likely will be going with those, but there are still a couple of other models I want to try first.
