Waste is 38. I guess I'd be okay with height since they recline, but concerned with shoulder room. Can you send a price for micro suede and for leather with the lumber option?

I think you should be ok... I will send you a quote for the seats with the shaved base option also since your over 6' tall.

Black cloth or micro suede, shaved to 79360?

I'm really not sure which one to go with. I love the look and feel of leather, but I'm tired of the sweaty back in the hot weather, so either cloth or suede.

Also the leather on the stock seats are so slippery. This along with the c6 z51 sways and solid end links. I should be able to take turns with confidence.
