Car seat covers?

So I've had Coverking Custom seat covers for 5 years and they are now worn out so I need to get some new ones but I didn't really care for the material, but at least they fit reasonably well.

My wife bought some random ones from Walmart but they didn't fit tightly or have any ways to attach them other than the elastic band and so every time I got in it out the bottom cover slipped off. So I went ahead and ordered some custom Covercraft Carthart seat covers. Those would stay on and the material seemed nice however they were very baggy on the seat and still didn't have any attachments other than an elastic band on the seat. I expected a lot better for $225 just for the front seats.

Can ya'll recommend some that will fit nice and tight, particularly on the bottom part of the seat, and are of a nice material? I only need covers for the front. Thanks.

Nice!

Thanks, those look fantastic but I'm hoping to find some decent slip on ones as they are significantly cheaper, however if I can't find anything acceptable those are definitely on my list now.

I’d eventually like to go with some Roadwire covers. The price includes install at a local authorized Roadwire dealer. They’re not cheap, but they’re nice.

You weren't kidding....

Those look very nice and very expensive. In fact they are more than the other company which replaces the foam and everything. Maybe one day....

I bought these and are very happy with them. I bought one for each front seat, then the rear bench. I also got some for our Subaru.

The company is a small business that prides themselves on quality and customer relations.

The seat covers are not the OEM look, but stand up to pet claws and dirt/mud which is why we got them.

Installation of OEM fit covers is not difficult, but does take several hours to do both front bucket seats. I certainly would NOT pay the kind of Roadwire money for them to install the covers. The Seat Shop covers look exactly like OEM, and fit just as nicely. I've done two front sets on two different vehicles, and would not consider going a different route.
