You can either get Wiseco's from a local dealer or call Tim (SpeedFactor).
Or you can get them from Kpec.

Yes, dealer have to buy 10 sets to get cheaper price.

Plus, Wiseco only stock 0.5mm oversize and 1mm oversize.

Need to place 10 sets min. for stock replacement bore size.

What HP are you looking at? Running for forged pistons everytime sometimes isn't necessary. If your looking at below 275whp, cast low comp pistons would do just fine.

Just a little add-on to that comment...he means hypereutectic pistons.
