Is it April yet?

I need tires, brakes, plus maintenance on the bucket.

Budget is hurting at the moment, may be tracking on crappy street tires, won't need brakes if that is the case.

Any opinions on the Corbeau FX1 Pro Seats? link. I need something a lot lower than the stock seats before I get out on the track this year.

Do I need/should I get, seat back braces with them?

Do they Fit in a S2000?

A lot of seats do not fit in the S2000.

I've found this thread (which is a little hard to understand): https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=743888

Sounds like all of his mounting troubles were because of the sliding seat rails not having enough room. I'll be side mounting mine, so I think they're ok.

I'll lose most access to my center compartment though, which would be annoying since my welded harness bar has already cut off access to the secret compartment.

These are pretty cheap though, which is a plus. I don't have a big budget, and any money spent on seats is money taken away from track time.

Will have clearance issues on the doorpanels. My seats are .7" more narrow and they basically touch the door panels.

I'm sure they're not cheap, but what do you have?
