The R3 Recaro seats had side bolsters that were a bit tight for us. I am below average in size as a male, and my wife is also very small and we found the bolsters cut into our hips far more than was comfortable. The seats are racing oriented only. see full Mazda RX-8 review

The headrest position is horrible for long trips. Felt like my head was being pushed forward. see full Chevrolet Traverse review
