I went with the Corbeau Evolution X. I love them, i am 5'11 170 pounds and I fit very good in the seats. They do sit a bit lower than stock since u have to use different brackets. So u get a little more head room, leg room is about the same. U only have front and back adjustments since the seats back is fixed. I paid 750 for the seats and another 150 for the brackets. Seats are a little snug by the seatbelt retractor but other than that the feel great. The hold me in place when making hard turns, no more sliding around.
