Default Bride Low-Max Heights

How do the following compare to the standard seat height in a Z?

Stradia Low-Max with standard cushion on RO bases

Stradia Low-Max with low cushion on RO bases

Stradia Low-Max with standard cushion on LR bases

Stradia Low-Max with low cushion on LR bases

Thanks

Colin

Also does sitting on the 'low cushion' feel any different?

low cushion is very uncomfortable...even the std cushion is lower than stock, and actually has some padding to it

I've never used the LR base before, only the RO - this is lower than stock by about 15mm or so

really subjective question, since comfort is such a relative thing. How tall are you and what do you weigh?

so around a 32-34 inch waiste? If so, they would fit you fine...I would suggest sticking to the Stradia though, as opposed to the Gias, which has the higher thigh bolster. Overall though if I had to make a recommendation, the Cuga would be my choice hands down - more cushioning, still has the cool carbon look to the back of the seat, only a touch heavier, but MUCH more comfortable

yea standard padding doesn't give the knees much support, makes the legs too straight for me in my car, I need to have them elevated somewhat or it feels like im sliding straight out of it lol. Also on a side note, look into getting a bride headrest pad that velcros onto the headrest portion of the seat. Most BRIDE seats I've been in, mine included, don't give any head support, the extra pad really helps with comfort.

The knee supports are a bit high in the Cugas.
