Braum racing seats

[MaxxdSVT]

Anyone install a set in their cobra? I've sat in a few different sets in different cars and I really liked them. Was looking to see if anyone had pics in our cars

Have you considered recovering your stock seats with TMI stuff?

Following, looking for reviews of seat quality.

No I haven't. My stock seats are in excellent condition. They don't need to be re-skinned. I love the stock seats but I feel like I sit too close and too high. I'm not the tallest at 6'2" but I would like to sit a little lower and further back. And I really like the braum seats. Im not a fan of the courbeau seats. Everything else is too expensive. The sparcos or recaros I like are $1300/seat. Where as the braums are $900/pair without brackets

I only suggested TMI because I assumed your stockers were shot.

If you look at Braum and Corbeau you can see that they are getting their seats from the same suppliers. They just cover them in different materials. Who that manufacturer is I have no idea.

I have looked at Braums site but have not sat in them. I have however sat in some Corbeaus that were of the same design and was impressed with the ergonomics and feel. One was leatherette and another cloth.

My concern with the seats is longevity/durability. I think the leatherette would last longer and have serious concerns about the cloth fading in the sun.

The cloth will breath better though and won't be like lava in the sun.

Honestly I'd have a hard time passing a set up for something like Recaro due to the price increase as well.

If you pull the trigger please make an install thread and update it with the durability.

I can't comment on the Braum, but I've had 2 pair of Corbeau.
I had A4s and they were ok but just not all that comfy.
I have their new LG1s (they changed the design a bit) and I love them. Super comfy, but firm. Nice material. Perfect fit for me (6' 180 lbs)

The LG1s look too bulky to be in a cobra interior imo. The only set I like from corbeau is the RRS and RRX.

I had never even heard of Braum seats before this thread. I looked them up and damn I love them. Now I’m considering a pair for my ‘03 Cobra. Thanks a lot! As if I haven’t already spent enough money on this car lol.

If I read the post correctly you might be happy with the stock seats if you could lower them?
I’m asking because I’ve always felt the same (would prefer to sit lower) even daily, but definitely when wearing a helmet.
Does anyone make a set of brackets to lower the stock seating position?
There’s always Kirkeys

The 96-98 brackets sit lower, but the seat belt needs to be anchored to the transmission tunnel.

Corbeau offers a shaved seat bottom option that lowers seating position by about an inch. You would only need to do that on one seat it’s about $65 each. Seats start around $900a set

I swapped my OEM 98 seats for a pair of Corbeau LG1s last year. I was worried I'd sit higher in the car, but to my surprise I sit a little lower. Not a lot, but enough to make me happy.
I'm 6' and my knees used to hit the keychain hanging off the key in the ignition. Not any longer.

I have set of braums in my car now. Super happy with them.
I can not find a way to get the picture on my PC but you can see them on my instagram. @Terminator_mk6

Those are the same corbeau seats I previously mentioned sitting in. Again very comfortable.

Looking back my only issue is the end of the seat not being angled up to support your legs. That is a feature I definitely want.

The big difference I am seeing between Corbeau and Braum is Corbeau tends to offer different material options not just colors like Braum.

 

[MaxxdSVT]

Those look like they fit really well in there. Love the style of seat
