Default Side seat bolsters hurt my legs..

I have been driving the car since tuesday and I must say my left leg hurts.. The side bolster on the bottom of the seat is very high and does not allow you to really get comfortable.. I am sure the real drivers would say , it's to hold you in place... My buddies boxster seats are much more comfortable...<p>Also what happened to recline ??? Say you want to lay down and sleep ?? Yeah right !!<br>

I find these seats are very comfortable, even through a 3500 mile drive. Turn the **** at the bottom of the seat back, and it will recline all the way. I even slept in it!

Default I agree mne, but I was thinking the same thing. I can see how the seat wouls pinch if you were "average-size challenged." (nt)Re: ummm Tony... that wasn't a very kind response. If you cant say anything nice, please withhold comment (n

Default No way - the seats are the best, I spent 15 hours behind the wheel; never felt as good in any other vehicle and I've been driving since 1966. -more

OK I'm 5-9 160lbs and in shape so maybe if you are big across the rear end.... We'll, you'll have that. JIM

My comment wasn't intended to insult anyone. I'm a little overweight myself. These seats were't intended to fit everyone. There are some larger cars that I'm not comfortable in.

Default I'm 6'2" and

about 275 lbs (large *** too!), and find the tt seats to be among the best I've ever sat in. I'm kind of the opposite of you though, because most seats make me feel like I'm going to fall off. Also, I don't get enough thigh support in most seats. If I were you though, I'd give it some time. THe bolsters will soften up over time, and you may find them to be very comfortable.<p>Charles<br>

Default I think the seat is a little stiff for me..more

I'm 6'1" 160lbs and could be in better shape. On a recent trip, my tail bone started to hurt after about 3 hours or so on the highway. Same thing with my passenger--my niece, trim 5'1". I love the side bolsters.<p>Probable explanation = not much padding on my rear end + sports car suspension + firm seats.<p>Solution = extra cushion for long trips.
