Besides the price?

Jegs: http://www.jegs.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product2_10001_10002_755323_-1
Summit: http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?part=SUM-G1159


Checker: http://www.partsamerica.com/ProductDetail.aspx?mfrcode=ATG&mfrpartnumber=SML300

They look pretty much identical, but the contrast is so bad on the checker image, that it's hard to tell. If anyone has the seats from checker.. are they decent quality?

They all look the same to me. I'd get the checker ones.

Yeah I heard from somewhere that the checker seats are knockoffs though... Anyone else know anything about these?

I dont think any of those seats are going to be comfortable, so id say buy the cheapest. By the way any $130-180 seat will be a knockoff of all the good ones!

For that kinda money, you could surely start shopping eBay or Craigslist ads for some SN95 seats. Comfy AND affordable.

SN seats will bolt right in, and I cannot see how those would be considered comfortable, its basically hard foam and vinyl! Wouldnt be bad in a race car of some kind, but in a car id plan on driving long distances and for long periods of time, I wouldnt even think of them!
