No it will not... no wide seats will fit the C5. In fact, the A4 is the ONLY reclining Corbeau seat that will fit your C5 easily

With the "1in. lower" mod, will the A4 have more head room than my factory non-sport Z06 seat?

God those are so much better looking than the stock seats

Is there a better of the two between Microsuede and Leather? Does one hold up better to use? The leather seats in a vette are horrible and crack after sitting in them once.

I would say the leather holds up better over Microsuede...We've sold alot of seats and have not seen them crack... let me PM you some prices.

Does the recliner lever really go on the wrong side of the seat?

Yes it has to be because of how tight the fit is

Just a heads up, looks like the Evolution X seat was made specifically for C5's and C6's.

http://corbeau.com/products/fixed_ba...e_evolution_x/

I'll be ordering a pair of Sportline RRX pretty soon for a different vehicle.

Thanks TPSMak!

Yes the Evolution X is designed to fit the C5 and C6 Corvette ... whenever your ready to order the RRX please let me know and I'll take care of you. We've sold quite a few of the Sportlines and people really like them

There's no way to customize the leather, right? Stitch color, etc?

The Evolution X seats how are they in relation to stock seats on the seat height? I am a really short guy 5'7ish so I am all the way forward and about as far up as I can go but I slide around my seats like crazy.

You can but it will be considered a custom seat which would almost double the price of the seats. If it was me I would just get black seats.

The Evolution X seat height is about the same as the stock seat height. They will not fit a C5

Thanks, does the tall driver option make it lower than stock, or about the same?

Is the standard A4 a bit higher than stock?

Ok so colour me confused. You have stated that the Evolution X is made for the C5 and that it wont fit a C5. Which is it?
