Pirelli tyres supply problems?

[rumplestiltskin]

Anyone else having this issue at the moment?

Need 2 fronts for my 996TT & 2 local suppliers, usually very good, are saying they just cannot get any Pirelli tyres at the moment due to shortage from Pirelli themselves.
If thats the case I would assume most places are in the same position? Anyone else heard this?

Don't want to go to Porsche & pay stupid prices (assuming they can even get them!)

Could not get Motorsport corsas, only wanted two rears, in the end have moved to yokohama A048, they are pretty good and cheaper, got them from Demon Tweeks.

Tried all over and France but no joy, apparently they have moved production from Italy to Kazacstan
