Has anyone else experienced this? I'm not the smallest guy in the world, but I'm not exactly huge, and I find them quite uncomfortable to sit in! Is there something I'm missing here? Am I supposed to push the sides out to fit or something?

 

I was planning on using them for a trip from Kent to Cornwall, but I don't think I could even get past London!

I'm pretty wide and broad myself and fit in them fine. A snug fit is what i'd describe it as. 

 

I think if they're so tight that they're uncomfortable then a diet may be in order (no offence) 

 

You could try bending them out a bit, they have a steel frame underneath all the padding so shouldn't be too hard to flex them out slightly.

i have the classic cobra bucket seats and i think that there really comfy! i havent had a chance to fill out yet so ive got plenty of room to move about, got the two front seats but i think £250 just for the cover and not the whole seat is very expensive! might have to stick with fronts if i have to buy them new

I've got a set of these in my mini, I'm a big lad so fill them out and I think they're really comfy, yet a friend who's a lot smaller and doesn't fill them finds them really uncomfortable! I thinks it's probably down to personal preference rather than anything else!

im definatly keeping them in my mini ! me and my friend are average size and both think there very comfortable!

I've yet to sit in them for a long period of time. They're going in a Midget (an MG Midget, not an actual midget) and I only tried them out quickly, they weren't bolted in and I wasn't driving it around. I'll see how they are when it's finally on the road.

 

I just sat in one and was like "Definitely don't know what all the fuss is about!", but maybe it's a different scenario when you're actually driving.
