Tenzo R aftermarket Seats

I was dreaming of getting some Sparco seats for my car (not anytime soon) but they are quite pricey. To get a pair of Sparco Torino's it'd run me alittle more then 1,000. For less then half the price I could get a pair of Tenzo R seats which I also happen to like. My question is: How is the reliability of the Brand name "Tenzo R", I they considered a cheap brand, or a solid mid-range brand? I know they are not top of the lin. Also, what products are they most well known for cuz I know they make alot of other stuff (pedals, rims, gauges, etc).

You get what you pay for. Personally, I'd only go Recaro, Bride, and Sparco.

Whats wrong with the stock seats Its a lux car not a race car. Racing seats IMO are rice already. (When you see a recaro in a 92 4dr integra with no other mods except seats and no hubcaps)If your a JDM whore tho, it mite be to your liking.

I need to re-do my leather seats. As for those kinda seats, get the Brides. Splurge a little.

Personally, I don't like our stock seats. If they were the same as the RSX seats or the CL-S seats, then yea...Keep them. But the 1st gen seats just don't keep you snug enough.

Don't see why buying recaro,sparco, or bride seats rice....if you buy tenzos or those knock off just for the looks then maybe. But if you're buying it for comfort and support then it's not rice at all.

I don't like the stock seats the bolsters are not big enough I guess they were thinking old fat people were going to drive this car... but im 5' 7" 140 and im pretty trim I slide around in the seat a lot. plus the lumbar support is a piece of shit it is never right on any setting.

I have an auto, so only need one foot to drive, and use the left side foot pad to pin me into the seat.

its not like im going around a corner at 50 or something... just when going regular speed 20-25 around a corner makes you fly through the window or into the passenger seat... hopefully lowering will help but still comeon they should have made the bolsters a bit bigger... but then again the left side bolster on the drivers side gets kinda worn from getting in and out... they should put some kind of reinforcement in the material kinda like gold toe socks...
