Tirerack.com is out, too. When you try and order, it says that the local wharehouse is out of stock, and then directs to you choose from five other wharehouses, with increasing shipping charges, the farther you get. And, for all but one of the wharehouses, the item is listed as "special order." For the other wharehouse, expected availability date is 1/16/09...

Might just cancel the order for now....no complaints about the ride with the H&Rs, so might just put the money to use elsewhere...

So you wanted to change out your H&Rs for Eibachs? I've had my H&Rs on for about 2 weeks and I love it now.

Oh noooo.. I hope my order went through. It had an available date of 1/15/09 for the Nevada warehouse when I placed my order.
 
Hrmm... $280+ shipped from Tirerack...

I remember when this thread was first started and $217.88 shipped was an awesome deal... then everybody bought 'em all. Flash forward a little over 2 months and we're settling with $280 shipped :embarrassed:

I have plenty of time to wait out shockwarehouse's deal to come back.

Edit: Still $230 shipped from shockwarehouse! Don't know of availability, but $230 shipped... wish I could find another 5% off coupon code...

I've already called shockwarehouse and they won't have them until end of Feb.

It's too bad I got my car only a few weeks ago.. if it was months ago I could of purchased so much stuff for 20-35% from the microsoft cashback! =T

Oh... well on a brighter note, the 5% off still does work with the same discount code lol. I think I might put in an order and wait it out until February for the $218 shipped.

No - I am keeping my H&R's - no complaints with those. I was looking at the KYB shocks on Tirerack.

Oh ok...that was some work finding mine. Ended up ordering from 3 different places. One place had the front left strut, another had the right, and one place had the shocks. I had already ordered the springs, so I wanted to do one install and save on the labor than if I installed the springs and shocks/strut separately.
 
hey everyone... I just ordered the complete set from RockAuto. $256 shipped

Your order has shipped! KYB349027Shipped (2)KYB339055ShippedKYB339056Shipped​
I thought that I wouldn't get the shocks until end of Feb and I would have the H&R springs this week... totally opposite now... no springs but I have the shocks!!! oh man!!!!

What's Up Darren

Thats good news, glad it worked out. Surprising that they had the whole set.

Thanks Toni...if it wasn't for you I probably wouldn't have checked rockauto.com again. Last week I checked it out they only had one shock in stock.

Now I have the shocks and no springs..oh wells!

Tirerack has the Eibachs for $232. If you don't mind the stiffer ride then Eibachs would be a good choice. Right now the H&R price has gone up. $389 on their site, Z1 has them for $288. Hot product.

Unfortunately I want the H&R for the softer ride. If I only bought my car two months earlier in Sept or Oct... then all the items I needed to buy would be in stock... then there was the 30% off ebay with live.com .....fast forward to Dec... no more deals and stuff are on backorder! go figure!

I would call H&R and ask are they upgrading their springs; making them stiffer. If they are making them stiffer, then they might be the same ride as the Eibachs.
 
anybody install these yet?? I put new OEM struts on about 18 mos back...the Eibachs were too low and ruined the original ones. We've got H&R's on now and it's a choppy ride still (though much improved). I'd prefer a better matched strut and these KYB's are cheap.
