Well how much money are you wanting to spend? Most true racing seats are going to rock solid for saftey reasons. However, if you look at "street" racing styled seats, the Milano from Sparco is going to be your best choice as far as comfort goes... They've got the best products around when it goes to seats, shift knobs, steering wheels, and racing wear.

I wouldn't buy a seat from just any company. What your first concern should be is your safety, because going with a cheaply made aftermarket 'racing' seat can really cost you your life..... I've seen a video in drivers ed a few years back of a Civic that had aftermarket seats that broke in half in a car accident at estimated speeds of 60mph, driver or passenger did not live. Highway patrol said that if they had left the OEM seats installed they probably would of lived. Sparco has almost 30 years of experience with racing influenced products. Even most NASCAR drivers have a Sparco seat in their cars. They also sell 2" and 3" harnesses for their seat's - which you should also look into.

We carry COBRA Seats. Check out Cobraseats.com and let me know what tickles your fancy. They start at $250 and work their way clear up to $2300 per seat. No brackets as of yet for the Cobalt.

Let me know

Gravana sells Recaro, Sparco, Momo, Tenzo, Cobra, Chargespeed (#1 in Drift), and more. You can also find brackets and sliders for the Cobalt and Ion.

Here is a link to a promo we have on Tenzos with Brackets and Sliders:

SEATS, BRACKETS & SLIDERS

If you don't see what you want on our site, just fire off an email!
