I'm a converted R32 owner, and while those seats were a bit radical, and hard to get in to without wearing out the bolsters, I miss their support. My SQ5 seats are nice, but I'd like a little more bolster and a bit wider seat since I'm sitting on the bolsters now. Any suggestions?

Lose weight?

Not trying to be a dick, but the audi sport seats are not narrow... pretty hard to sit on the bolsters

Aftermarket seats or seat modifications do not exist.

You're not being a dick, but if these are what I have to live with, that's fine.

My wife complains about the bolsters every time she gets in!
I somewhat agree though, although I did take that advice and am down 15# since getting the car. Not for that reason, but the weight loss has certainly helped haha

While I'm no lightweight, I easily fit in to the R32 seats, the fact still remains that I'm sitting on the bolsters as much as the seat. I expect that a major part of the problem is that the bolsters aren't sufficiently high to force my butt in to the center section. It appears that I sit to the left when straight behind the wheel, so I'm on the left bolster. I expect that what I need to do is have the center section of the seat reupholstered with less foam so I sit lower.

That almost sounds crazy, but on a previous car, I had the seats reupholstered, and it was a lot less than I expected. Granted the shop owner was of questionable legal status and only dealt in cash, he did excellent work and I think it was like 150 a seat to go from completely worn black leather to new black leather with (probably fake) Alcantara inserts

You do realize that alcantera by definition is fake.

Nope but I suppose I do now

I remember when the women at Saks told me I wasn't the right "type" for a Hugo Boss suite.... Maybe this is the same thing? I'm 6'2" and 220lbs.
The seats are big enough for me and definitely wide enough!

I'm 6'1" , 190 and I find them wide. I wish the seat backs inflated like they did in the TTS. I find I move around a bit too much. I find it hard to get out of the seat bottom without feeling like I'm going to wear it out.
