So im planning on lowing my corsa b around 60/80mm im looking at getting a full coilover set but im unsure on what brand to go for.
Cars not going to see a track so they dont need to be stupidly pricey, but i would like a good set, iv heard of spax and avo but read so many mixed reviews its left me even more unsure aha.

any recommendations and reviews?

I wouldn't use avo on a corsa B. if you speak to avo direct they will tell you their coilovers are not ment for road use. I had them on mine, hard ride and not much drop on the front, loads on the rear. tried 3 sets and 4 sets of springs 3 of which were higher poundage. in the end they gave me my money back and I got a set of bilstien b12 coilovers. only £50 more than the avo's.

I had gaz on my old sport and fully polybushed was a good setup. But how often will you be adjusting height? Fixed rate may be better

GAZ GHA's are very good for the money, less than Spax.
