Merv, QA1 Proma Stars are the popular alternative down here, either single or double adjustable. They're not up there with Bilstein or Koni shocks but the quality control seems far better than AVO. I have the double adjustables with solid rod ends but you can get poly mounts for more comfort. I think Warwick fits poly at one end and solid at the other.

I have matching QA1 springs at the same rates as yours. My front coilovers are set pretty high at the moment and it runs very hard at the front. This will be remedied in the coming weeks with correct tyre profiles, otherwise it's not worth me commenting too much on the ride quality. Hopefully others will chime in.

I ordered mine from Jegs and they put "goods made in the USA" on the package, which helped with the duty back when the AUD wasn't as strong.

Edit: model numbers were DDR4855B and DDR5855B, FYI.
