Default most comfortable seats type / age

hi

just got some wrx seats in my gc8 sport and they seem really uncomfortable with far too much lumber. picture below

im assuming they are from a bug eye as they seem sit too high, they have lighter flashes along the edges

my question is which are the comfiest age seats to get for a gc8 and how do i identify them or are they all the same in terms of the the large amount of lumber?

thanks

They look like standard classic seats, and I liked them the most. Newage sti are nice, newage leather are really nice (my gf has them in her bug), standard bug are good, standard blob are terrible (I have those). Don't know about hatchback and later but apparently they are not very "buckety"

You've got standard classic turbo seats. I had bug wrx seats in my '99 GF8, they're now in my Forester, and will be in my next Subaru too. They're the best of the bunch for me (6' and skinny), comfortable and supportive in all the right places.

I liked the V7 (2001) sti jdm seats for comfort and support. S204 seats look the best imo but I have never sat in one.

thanks, ive added some foam in places to lessen the lumber and they are more bearable, there is a set of classic sti seats locally i dont know if they would be any better.
its definatly the excessive lumber curve that is making them uncomfortable.
