How do I pick the right size of seat? A Kirkey Racing seat’s width is based on the width of your hips.
Using only a straight edge ruler have the driver sit on a bench with legs hanging over the side. Measure the width of the hips through the center line of the body side to side.
Do not measure across the lap of the driver as this will give a larger than required measurement.
Take this measurement as the size of the seat you need. If it is 15” then you would order a 15” seat. If it is 15 ¾” go to a 16” seat.
Note: some seats are only available in two or three sizes, in this case pick the next size up.
