Default Racing Seats, which one?

Has anyone had experience or known of anyone who has used the APC racing seats? They are some of the cheapest i've seen but that makes me really question quality.

I've read mixed reviews online (there aren't many opinions though) and it seems they use a cheaper quality material and may rip at the seams. I'm not too concerned about material but i am concerned about the fabric ripping away.

It's for my Chevelle so it's really a cruiser. I just need something comfortable and inexpensive and something that will hold up for at least 20-30k+ miles of usage. If it was for my S2k i'd go for something like a Corbeau or Recaro or something but it's just for a cruiser.

Any opinions?

Anyone want to chime in and recommend another inexpensive seat?

Why do you care of what we think when you're paying? I'd say, you pick the one you like or suits you best

I see your point and i'm paying yes...

But i haven't seen any "cheap" seats in person and the folks selling online don't have a showroom. I was hoping people who have experience with inexpensive seats can chime in and tell me/us what they think.

nvm... this is a moot point over here.

buy used OEM seats off another car. the quality should be good, and it'll a lot less expensive than an aftermarket seat. and it won't look as tacky as an APC seat.
