Does anyone run a Kirkey seat in their fox? I've decided to get one, but I'm not sure which width to get. Was wondering if anyone runs one and what width do you run? Thanks for the info.

I just put two in my coupe. I like them, I got the prostreet ones with the black covers. I am 6'2" and 250 lbs and I got the ones 18" wide and they fit nice.

I have the pretty **** big un'. I'm short but I'm 300lbs :lol1: It fits me great. But I would DEF. recommend sitting in one. I just got lucky and got the right size. My buddy who weighs 200 sits in it and hates it because its too big. You want it to fit you the correct way.

I thought there was a thing online that you could measure yourself so that way you got the correct one. but I agree, I would try to find someone who has them and sit in them.

How do I pick the right size of seat?

A KIRKEY RACING seat’s width is based on the width of your hips. Using only a straight edge ruler have the driver sit on a bench with legs hanging over the side. Measure the width of the hips through the center line of the body side to side. Do not measure across the lap of the driver as this will give a larger than required measurement. Take this measurement as the size of the seat you need. If it is 15” then you would order a 15” seat. If it is 15 ¾” go to a 16” seat. Note: some seats are only available in two or three sizes, in this case pick the next size up. (See the custom shop for more information on how to measure yourself)

I'm assuming you got the Kirkey Foxbody Mounts to go with them? They seem like the best ones for max adjust-ability.
