Speaking from experience, these cheaper seats are junk. I helped my brother install a similar set in his E30 BMW and they were the first thing I replaced with the OE seats I had saved when he sold me the car.

Corbeau has some nice seats on the lower end of the price spectrum, and of course Sparco and Recaro are at the top.
