Question for those with bride's w/ low max

How long can you sit in these before they get uncomfortable? I only ask because I take 2-3 trips a year that total a 10-hour drive. Thanks in advance.

those would be the last seat I'd suggest then for someone of your size. Better bet would be the Vorga or XAX

I hear ya...having years of experience with these seats, I think there are better choices given your build than the Gias/Stradia. I'd suggest looking at the Cuga/Vorga

i've used bride brix II seats in my supra and i'm 6 feet 245lbs (at the time) and drove from nor cal to so cal in them. not the most comfortable seats for long trips but i did last the full 6 hour drive only to stop for gas once...it really all depends on what your tolerance is, like with anything...whats comfortable to you is painful to another. good luck with whatever seats you pick
