Hi, I am wanting to get a full set of Bilstein B6s for my E89 35i but cannot find anywhere with them in stock, the part numbers are as follows :

35-170631
35-170648
24-170659

Would anyone happen to know anyone that could help me get these, I can get the Front Right from Bilstein only, the others are months waiting time and I am driving to Europe in late June so need it all on the car by then
 
Autodoc appear to have the full set unless i'm reading it incorrectly.

£125 for each of the fronts and £91 for each of the rears.
 
I ordered from there initially and they cancelled the order, they don’t have them, I then ordered from bilstein uk and they had front left that was it, and this is the lead times for them they said IMG_5010.jpeg

This is where I got my B12 Pro-Kit from, they give you some standard delivery time (3-4 days PROVIDING the parts are already in the UK) and then email you to let you know how long it is actually going to be to get the parts from Germany, but they do give you an opportunity to cancel at that point so that's something.

Very few companies have these sorts of things in stock. You have to imagine how many vehicle models there are, permutations of those vehicles and then permutations of suspension setup per permutation. It takes a large logistical operation to have these on shelf.

From my experience, nearly all UK retailers will purchase from Bilstein based on customer order. I got mine shipped to me direct from Germany, having bought through Larkspeed. They came within a week or so.

Yeah the whole journey of my suspension going followed by sourcing a new set followed by waiting for it to be delivered was a massive pain in the arse tbh :ROFLMAO: Fingers crossed you get it sorted in time for your Europe trip. You going anywhere exciting? Nürburgring?
 
I had B6, i replaced with B4 for a slightly softer ride.
Not a huge difference to be honest.
Still have the fronts lying about, still ok.
I use one rear shock as a brake pedal compressor for brake bleeding.
