When its all the way back like the first pic.. do you actually rest your back up against the seat? Looks uncomfortable. if you do; you must have long arms

you can get charged for having your seat too far back. something to do with not in control of vehicle. my mate got 3 points for it not long ago.

Used to accidently have 'gangsta' lean all the time with my calibra seats, was comfy but I did look a twat and about 12.

Currently have Cobra Monaco S Seats so Im up right and even though I had a couple of days of back ache when I first got them i find i drive a hell of a lot better.

I have mine set up normally.
Pisses me off when you see people and their headrest is visible only through the back window due to the seat being wound so far down

Unless you are 7 foot tall there is no reason to be back that far, the seat should be fairly upright to give you maximum control of the car.

I actually asked a black man about this when I was over in USA one time.

He called me a cracker midway through his response But the gist of his jive-turkey talk was that if he had it far enough back then it would be harder for him to be shot in the head as the pillar would protect him
