The best thing you can do is sit in as many different brands as you can. The seat dimension sheets are helpful but the seats vary greatly even with similar numbers. Until my car died - I was shopping for new halo seat and some I thought would fit - weren't very comfortable.

Yes and I bought a Cobra GT Width halo seat (now sold) that did not fit me in the shoulders and so was not usable. Go to an autocross or an HPDE and sit in as many cars as possible with seats, or if there is a performance parts dealer, go there and sit in the seats. Anybody in North FL that wants to sit in some Recaro Profi XL seats, or if you ever see me and my car at a track day, or at the Amelia Island Werks Reunion this Friday, just ask. I have probably had a dozen folks sit in my seats, and several of them have that same seat now.
