Shox.com will have them at a good price. However, when I called they were on backorder to March 15 so I got Koni instead.

WTF!! Is this the reason why Im having trouble getting Bilstein shocks for my car? Ive been trying for 2 weeks now to get them and so far Howbar and Vettebrakes have been giving me the run around... I will say that I had a good experience with Vettebrakes the LAST time I placed an order with them. 3 weeks ago I placed an order for Front struts (bilstein) and I had them at my garage in about 4 days. Isnt there anybody out there that can hook me up?????

Later..

bilsteins
Yep..ordered mine from LPE. They have them in stock and should be here in a few days. They ran me roughly $420 bucks for struts and shocks. Will take some pics of the change since I just got my first Dig camera yesterday. Later

Is my link not working? $420???? I got mine from the link I posted for the price listed and that was for either the standard valve or high performanced valved (take a guess which I picked).

eshocks.com has them at good price. I just got my rears in the mail today. When I ordered them I was told they were the last 2 in stock so you may run into the same problem. When I ordered my front struts from them a while back they were out of stock but they had them drop shipped to me straight from the Bilstien wherehouse, maybe they can do the same for you. Whatever you do don't order from AutoZone they will take forever. I finally got fed up with waiting and cancelled my order and went with these guys a lot cheaper and had them the next day...only cause the Bilstein wherehouse is close to me.
