    Just looking at these seats from bimarco, i know they are cheap but surely they cant be that naff? Must have some sort of approval rating to be aloud use on the road. The reason I'm looking at these is cause they come in a big size, im 6ft 7 and about 36 waist. Il only be using the seats on road and maybe the occasional track day. Don't want to be spending 1000 on a pair of recaro pole positions again. Any feed back would be great.

    I've got a bimarco futura in my MR2, really nice seat, well made and supportive, FIA approved too, the futura is quite wide though - a tight fit in the MR2

    they're available from bimaro directly through ebay, much cheaper than GSM sell them

    So you have no horror stories of them etc and you rate them pretty well?

    Bimarco is a high quality seat company based in Poland.
    They got another label named "Beltenick". There well known and often used. I had the Beltenick Futura in my Subaru back then. no issues just good value.

    btw, FIA approved seat can't be too bad or it wouldn't been approved.
