i got Spax RSX coilovers. ony went for them because i got em really cheap second hand. but haven had any problems with em really. rear isnt adjustable, but it definately low enough as my tyre rubs the top of the arch!! they are also dampening adjustable which helps 
pretty easy to set up, heres a few random pics.....
(the coil is no where near as far down now as it is ther)
oh yes, dont go too low:

I'm itching to get mine, got them in the group buy lat month.
Do you think its worth upgrading at some point to the Koni adjustables?
I got the stiffer springs with mine for the 2ltr.

Custom built GAZ are buy far the best. I've had avo's, koni's and FK's. Gaz are by a huge margin, the best
