Default They are not that comfortable - they are really more for track use per the

reviews I've read

Default They aren't too bad...

Drove an RS4 in Germany a few thousand km and they were ok. Not super cushy, but they do hold you in place much better. You can't be a fatso either.

Default It all depends on your size and age...

I hated them when I drove around Europe, but I'm not a small guy. If CanuckRS4 is slim he will love them.

Older people also hate them b/c getting in and out is a task. The lower bolster is hard as a rock and can be painful if you don't watch how you get in and out of the car.

If I were slimmer I would have bought them last year. Even with my size I could get away with them for daily driving, but any long trip wouldn't be fun at all.

Flat-bottom steering wheel? I want to do this, but $1k overall seems much.

Default Me as well.... was thinking a carbon hood but only like the MTM one and its way too expensive...

Also not sure it really makes much sense given stock aluminum hood is already quite light...
