Can anyone recommend a company who does height adjustable rear coilovers? I currently have dampening adjustable with 100mm rear springs but I'm just not happy. Cheers.

No worries. Bear in mind avo coilovers have a bad rep for failing in many ways. My front ones have gone, nic barnes' have gone aswell. I will say the rear set up have had no problems & you can slam it. Hope that helps you out.

Yeh Luke heard this too. Got an awsome set up at the moment which I can't fault but just want to go lower on the back so they should be fine just for the back. Cheers mate.

are the rear avo coilovers the same width as normal shocks, just wondering that they could possibly rub against the wheel.

theyre fine on speedlines. i imagine wheels that are 45 offset would also be fine as they stick out further than speedlines which are 49.
front avo's need spacers though. well, mine did.
