The OMP HTE-R gives you the seat professional motorsport teams trust, in the fibreglass version that makes it attainable for a sim build. The built-in padded head restraint and high-profile side bolsters put you in a genuine racing driving position, and the breathable AIRTEX upholstery keeps you cool through the long sessions where lesser seats start to feel like punishment. FIA 8855-1999 homologated, available in Regular and XL. Authentic OMP competition seating, priced for a rig rather than a race team.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this seat fit my sim rig?

The OMP HTE-R uses a standard side mount pattern that fits the vast majority of aluminium profile sim rig seat brackets without any modification. If you are unsure about compatibility with your specific rig, contact us before ordering and we will confirm.

What size should I choose between Regular and XL?

The Regular size suits most drivers up to around 185cm and 85kg. The XL offers wider shoulder and hip sections and suits larger builds. If you are between sizes, the XL is generally the safer choice as the seat can be padded down with cushions but cannot be made smaller.

Is a harness included?

No. The seat includes a removable split leg cushion and adjustable lumbar support but does not include a harness. The 5 harness slots accept 4, 5 and 6 point harnesses from any standard motorsport supplier.

Do I need specific brackets to mount this?

Standard side mount brackets are required. Most aluminium profile cockpits include seat brackets compatible with this seat. If your rig uses a bottom mount only, a side mount adapter bracket will be needed. Contact us if you are unsure.

Does it work with a HANS device?

Yes. The OMP HTE-R is HANS compatible with standard FHR mounting provisions built into the shell.

How long does delivery take?

The OMP HTE-R is held in UK stock and is usually despatched within 2 working days of your order being placed.

Is delivery free?

Delivery is charged at checkout as this product is under £500. The cost will be shown clearly before payment.

Sizing Guide

Find Your Fit

Our racing seats are a universal fit designed to suit the majority of drivers. Here's how to check the seat works for you before you order.
01

Measure your hips

While seated, measure the width across the widest point of your hips and thighs. This is the most important measurement for seat fit.
02

Measure your shoulders

Measure the width across your shoulders. Taller and broader drivers should also note their seated height.
03

Compare to the dimensions

Check your measurements against the seat's internal dimensions listed in the specifications section on this page. A race seat is designed to be close-fitting, so allow a snug but comfortable margin rather than a loose one.

Not sure if this seat suits your build? Email your height, hip and shoulder measurements to support@simtorque.co.uk and we'll confirm fit before you order.
