Default ?'s for people with Bride Seats

I'm looking to get a set of Bride Zeta III's but I'm worried about the fitment. If anyone with these seats could help a brother out.
?'s I have are:
Do these rub on the door?
Do these hinder the opening of the glove box?
How much does one seat weigh?
Where did you buy yours from?


I prefer the Zetas because they look to have more holding force, but will get the Exas if the Zetas rub on the doors or stop the glove box from opening. I plan to track the car so holding force is a big issue as well as weight.
Thanks guys and gals.

Umm, do these seats give pretty good lateral support. Ever find yourself shifting in the seat. Are they track duty worthy?

Hi i'm using the Artis II (older version) and mine does rub on the door slightly. No issues with the glovebox tho...

Also, if you use 'low position seat rails' you cant shift it too far forward as it contacts the transmission hump area. There is for RHD vehicles, not sure about yours..

Cheers

i think the seat does its fair share. the seat fits really tight. i cant image people with a size 35 waist or so fiting in them. as for the track, im not really experienced in that field so i wouldnt be able to give u a definite answer on them. other than that. it doesnt rub on the door nor the center door console. my previous seat felt a bit more relaxed near the thighs, with the brides you feel like ur legs are really squished together. making it uncomfortable at times.

zetas won't fit.
it'll rub in door,
and interfere with glove compartment.

artis will clear the glove compartment but it will still rub on door.
(some retard a while ago put driver's side artis into pass. and pass. spec one into driver's side,
saying it's more "jdm" that way... )

specs of artis, exas and zetas are the same.
only difference is how much the shoulders stick out.
so the amount of holding/ support you'll get is the same regardless of which one you'd get.

seat is pretty light,
but the rail is pretty dang heavy,
overall weight diff. will be not much.

i got my exas from bulletproof.

... like someone mentioned, if your pants size is bigger than 34, forget about it.
i'm 33/34 and it gets pretty painful after a while.
the support is great, i think the benefit on the tracks will be big.

The best setup from Bride for S2K is the newly developed VIOS III utilizing Lowmax rails
