To your point, no one seems to have the Bilstiens. Too bad,,, at Summit with the $50 discount they're offering on orders over $500 they'd be $685 which is a deal.

Koni's may be an option,,, they also have a $50 rebate going on as well.

Oh ok. Yea honestly, id love to get a set of Bilstein dampers myself i too have RCE Yellows and would love to upgrade. That Summit deal would be a steal...

Sold out of the initial batch of the SS1s but more are in production right now (probably have them in 2 weeks). We'll keep the current price til the end of the month if you reserve a set.

Just a small update. Reached out to Bilstein USA via email regarding availability. Three days no response. Screw them.

Bought the Koni's at a super price + $50 rebate. Will end up being cheaper then the Bilstein's at $651.44. Color me happy!

there is no availability and hasn't been for years.

KDad2 · 11-22-2018, 12:35 AM

Are these available yet?

jamal · 11-22-2018, 11:42 AM

Stuff has been starting to come in. One of my distributors gets pretty frequent updates about stock at bilstein and I've been seeing more stuff available. They even have a few b6 and b8 shocks for these.

Sapphireho · 11-23-2018, 11:37 AM

Mind have been on backorder with ft86 speedfactory since June. Last time I talked with them they said they were told mid November. I should probably email them again.

norcalpb · 11-23-2018, 01:09 PM

I’ll be at my one year mark with my B6s next month. The wait will be worth it guys I promise.

jamal · 11-27-2018, 11:07 PM

What's funny is my wd has front right B6s but no lefts, and front left B8s, but no rights.

Sapphireho · 12-28-2018, 10:09 AM

Just got tracking numbers for my B6 from SubiSpeed / FT-86 Speed Factory. They are scheduled to arrive Saturday 12/29. Ordered in June.

Finally!

mrspindlelegs · 04-24-2019, 10:44 AM

I ordered complete Bilstein B6 set on 3-26-2019 from FT86 Speedfactory and they arrived on 3-29-2019 so supply doesn't appear to be a problem at this time (unless I just got lucky).

J-Mac · 06-10-2019, 12:12 PM

Hey
Has anyone else had any luck getting a set of B6’s?
I placed an order last month for a set and they are saying it’s on back order still.

why? · 06-10-2019, 12:50 PM

I wouldn't order these anywhere without calling first to make sure they have them in stock.

jamal · 06-10-2019, 07:45 PM

Are you trying to get them from in Canada or would you be willing to use a shipping depot at the border? They're showing in stock at the place I buy them (which is accurate and gives me actual quantities).
