I have the standard (ie not wide)GTS fiberglass seats, although these seem to be the same as MK and many others.
Im not a small chap either at 17.5st and while they are a 'Snug' fit they are surprisingly really comfortable!.
I would suggest having a word with Triton perhaps as he makes seats.
infact here you go linky mine are the same a the high side

as covered many times, don't order from GTS, as you 'may' be disappointed. though flak monkey might be able to help.

triton is one place to try

I got my seats from JK composites. Great quality, very light and a great price too.

They're available in different widths, the dimensions are on their site, link below.

I was trying to be slightly more subtle than that

Partial thread hijack....

I keep seeing advice not to order from GTS, if one wanted some highline bodywork, what are the alternative suppliers?

Cheers

Tillet seats are fantastic, got two of them in the fury, they are very very comfortable. In carbon fibre they are a bit pricey but the grp versions are still quite light and excellent quality.

There are variations on the theme with some being wider, taller/flatter etc.

Give MSAR a call, they were happy to ship one out to me whilst I figured out what i wanted.

Having seen and sat in Jim's seats from JK Composites I ordered some myself. JK were really helpful and I'm really pleased with them. Great seats.

Cheers Kev
