BMW Z4 MK1 Bucket Seat Guide
The BMW Z4 (E85/E86) story...
The first generation of the BMW Z4 MK1 consists of the BMW E85 (roadster version) and BMW E86 (coupe version) sports cars. The E85/E86 generation was produced from (2002 to 2008).
Once you start using your BMW Z4 MK1 for fast road and track use, you’ll soon realize just how much you need new bucket seats to provide more support.
On cornering, you may find your self holding onto the steering wheel tighter than usual, tensing your thighs and legs against the central console and/or door card. You’ll probably find your weight shifting in the seat and having to re-position your self after the corner.
None of this is correct. Your seat should provide the right level of support so that you can grip the steering wheel only for steering, your legs should be supported and your weight shouldn’t shift around. The recommendations we provide are to ensure that you feel comfortable and supported allowing you to focus on the job at hand.
We’ve worked closely with our customers to create our BMW Z4 seat guide.
The resulting recommendations are based on previous customer car installations.
