My seats got jacked, need new ones ASAP!
Hello,
I have had a really great weekend.. I parked my car in a parking garage hoping to save it from getting damaged in the hurricane (my neighborhood is full of trees). I returned early the next day only to find my top slashed, seats and gear shift knob stolen. I'm hoping to get in to see the adjuster tomorrow (hope, hope). Supposably they will cut a check pretty soon after, I have USAA. I would like to go ahead and order my seats, I'm not going to go OEM. So I'm trying to come "up to speed" on seats and seat installs. I searched and there is so much info to sort through that its hard to get the answers I need and I'm under the time crunch (not to mention no power).. things have to happen quick. The S2K is my daily driver. Can anyone answer a few questions without saying SEARCH.
1. I'm a big guy 6'0 and about 230lbs, what would be recommended for someone of my generous proportions.
2. Will the seat rub?
3. Which Rails, It would be nice to sit a little lower/ and or back a bit
4. Who stocks these for immediate delivery? I would prefer to one stop shop.. local South FLorida would be the best. I don't want to wait, so quicker is more important than cheaper.
5. Any other things I should be asking?
Sorry to be a pain, but I have limited time to get this done and even less research time.
Thanks in advance.

I can't give too much advice but the Sparco Evo 2 is a good seat for a large frame.

Thanks, WV. I was a little surprised that I didn't get a few more responses, considering what a sob story it is. I looked through 20+ pages of search posts and still have yet to get a real clear answer. Oh well. I see the adjuster tomorrow, so I will have to do something that evening or Wednesday at latest.
