      Recaro, dear god, there is NO QUESTION, Recaro.

      The day I put that first pair of MkII Recaros in my E30 was the day I was the most comfortable in my car I have ever been. I think E30 sport seats are some of the most uncomfortable seats ever. Granted, that comes down to each person (I'm 6' 1", 230 lbs. and not a small guy), but you just can't go wrong with them.

      Wait until you guys see the new set that's going in my car in about 1-2 months when I get them back from JJ Custom Interior...

        Either way back on topic, I would go with the Recaros over the Houndstooth.
        As far as I know, those are just the stock E30 M3 seats that have been redone. I was under the impression that they were made by Recaro. They have the front edge that is adjustable, as well as being able to be tipped forward or back, and they are reclining.

        I find them super comfortable. I've done 10 hours straight in them (ok, I had to stop for fuel at about the 4.5 hr mark.) and I'll say they are the only seats I can spend that much time in without my back getting tweaked. In every other set of seats, I'm only good for 4 hours at most and when I hit that, I pretty much can't sit or drive any more, my lower back just says no more.
