Tillett Racing B9 Seat
The B9 carbon fiber seat is one of the lightest options available for road and track use in performance saloon cars. It shares the same proven shape as the B8 but focuses on reduced weight and a higher-level finish. At just 3.2 kg, the B9 stands out with a gloss carbon surface on both the front and rear. This makes it the premium choice for drivers who want maximum performance with refined appearance. Its construction uses twin skin molding with structural carbon fiber and epoxy resin, delivering a seat that feels solid while remaining significantly lighter than other seats in its class.
The B9 provides excellent body support while remaining practical for daily driving. The contoured design holds your body securely in place and keeps your shoulders free for smooth steering input. The shape fits the body so precisely that no upholstery is required. This lowers overall seat weight and helps position you lower in the car. Running the seat without padding also makes it well suited for open top vehicles and demanding environments. For regular road use, thin Dinamica suede panel sets are recommended to add comfort without adding unnecessary weight. The B9 is available in two edge configurations to suit different cockpit layouts. The B9-44.5 features rolled leg edges left intact. This creates a more refined visual line and makes it easier for you to get in and out of the car. If space allows, this is the preferred option. For tighter interiors, the B9-43 is designed with the leg edges removed. This allows the seat to fit between the gearbox tunnel and door sill in narrow cabins while retaining the same seating position and support.
