Default Fixed or Adjustable Buckets...

For a road going track toy, do we go Fixed buckets? or some adjustables?


And if so, can anyone recommend any? Don't want mega bling carbon blingy super dooper things, just something that'll hold me in well, and probably come in an excel/wider version...

Depends on how much time yor going to be sat in them.

Cheap ones around the £80 mark have shit foam padding in them that flattens within a month or 2 and leaves them very uncomfy to sit in.

As with everything you get what you pay for, you may not be able to see it but the foam used is far different in the £3 - £400 ones.

I'd ONLY ever go for fixed if its a track car. Safety being a number 1 priority over convenience.

Probably got to spend about 5-600 all in, this including subframes...

It'll be used as an everyday car, so need them to be slightly comfortable, how comfy are fixed buckets?

Thanks for the input Mr.
