comfortable and safe in a 2001 silverado. Im thinking of some lightweight race seats that are comfortable since its a dd. Ive seen some pics of seats in these trucks but never have i gotten any opinions.

Thanks,
Derek

 

Only problem with running a racing seat is you have to find a place to attach seat belts since ours are in the seats. Just something to think about.

 

pm slow he has some nice seats

 

I really like what Corbeau has to offer as far as quality and comfort.

 

so who needs a set of racing seats in a truck? remember its atruck, yes it an be quick but doesnt need racing seats unless and all out drag truck. just MHO

 

Im mainly doing it for weight. These factory seats are pretty heavy.

ok i get that but honestly man its a truck!!!!! just make more power. i could see for a race vehicle but not a cruiser/DD

 

Why does it matter if he wants to put racing seats in HIS truck?

 

same reason why you think a honda is rice

 

factory seats are not all that heavy. At least the manual ones. When I had mine out I bet they weighed less than 30#. There are alot of other places to trim weight before the seats. Like the rear bumper, hood, spare, etc. but in the end you will still be heavy. As mentioned it is a truck, I would think in some scenarios you might be sacrificing your own safety and the safety of other occupants for a few pounds. Probably won't even be noticeable on a street driven truck
