Default WTB PSS10's

Since they're backordered for who knows how long, looking to see if anyone has a set they'd like to sell?

Curious, what's your next-best choice?

If you decide to look at KWs instead, keep in mind that a price bump is coming. So people are buying now.

Good thing you bought when you did. KW is increasing pricing over $1100 for the set March 1st!

I was in a similar situation a few months ago. Many big distributors have PSS10s in stock. I found a new set from a distributor on Ebay FWIW.

Few months ago maybe. I searched last week. Canadian distributor is out. Bilstein US is out, FD Motorsports has been trying for months, Pelican Parts is out and a few more. Nobody has in stock dates, as mentioned above Bilstein said Mid May.

Don't think you can get them at the moment. Nonetheless I went KW v3 yesterday.

Yeah I ended up going with non Porsche/Euro specific distributor. Not sure of the name. I saw a set on Ebay when I just did a search but the distributer is in the UK and the price is well over what I would pay for a set. I have KWs on my M3 but I don't like the adjustment range for the 993, for my needs, otherwise I would have done the same. Enjoy!

Gert @ Cranewal said mid March but who knows if that's realistic.

Same from the Canadian distributor, but they also said it's not guaranteed and could change.

I did look up a distributor in UK as well. Appeared to be in stock but after currency conversion it was way more expensive, so couldn't justify the cost.

I think the KWs are a better option anyway.
Enjoy!
