Those seats are proper lovely but I'm not a fan of BC coilies, I had them on a car a few years ago and they were crashy as sin and also very common to suffer with knocking, which is a shame as they good really well built.

If you want coilovers, spend the money on a really good set or go for the MSS spring kit, then you keep the comfort and still get the ride height adjust-ability of coilovers.

Seats look absolutely awesome!
Are they less comfortable compared with standard ones?

Currently they pretty comfy but the new and the leather is still hard.
