    sorry to dig this up from last month...

    i'm currently looking into buying their 60/40mm spring/shock kit from them. their site quotes $536.00 for it, yet when i inquired via e-mail, steve sent me back an e-mail quoting me $899.00 shipped. that's a shit ton of money for the kit altogether. other guys i have talked to paid approxmately $5_ _.00 ish for this kit and seemed surprised i was quoted so much. i was offered "possible" dealership discount as i work for a bmw dealership, but i cannot supply the information he's asking for in order to receive such a discount.

    i understand KW products come from Germany and that's not cheap, but i've shipped a decent sized/weighted box over to europe once and i know it did not cost me four hundred bucks to do so. it sounds like steve's a good guy and many have attested to them being a reputable business and i beleive that, but i've twice asked via e-mails about pricing and havent gotten straight answers as to the differences. i feel like i am getting the run around here, not to mention being quoted too much money for the kit, but i wanted to hear other people speak up about them.

    anybody have anything they could chime in with or inform me about?

      Did you tell him the price that was stated on his website?

        yes, i got a vague answer back...i remember it being something to the tune of " KW of Germany recommended such a price and so and so...we are a premier dealer here in the US...no warranty stateside...blah blah" but nothing straight up. i'll check my work e-mail again tomorrow morning, i sent another e-mail before i left work asking once again so we'll see if that clears anything up.

          Digging up an old thread...

          Here is my experience,
          I paid for a set of Borbet A's on September 5th, it is now Dec5th and I still don't have set of rims. After continuously changing the Borbet shipping date I was told they were unavailable until spring '07 so I changed it to Azev's which he said would come right away. After my extra payment cleared I was told that they would actually be able to ship by the end of November. I just sent an email to see if they have been shipped and Steve says they wont be available for another month but I could go 9" all around for shipping immideiately... I am pulling the plug on this one and getting a refund.
          I hope that doesnt take the same amount of time!
