Gona get Koni yellows for the rear.

HZ and MA wud be best for this mod advice 
But in reply to your question; Avo are a bit notorious for rusting and a harsh ride - ask broster 
Spax RSX are pretty reliable as far as i know Ben_Ev has them as dis Corsa-Godfather i think

Avo are the only GENIUNE coil over for the rear.
All others use a tradidional spring and damper set up.

Gona keep spring and dampers mate, just want the coilovers for front so i can still have a low car after the conversion. as i dont think you can get 280-300lb -60mm lowering springs
