hiya guys can anybody let me know where i can get a set of rear shocks for my 172?i'd prefer them to be adjustable or uprated but doesnt really matter!

Usless you have different front ones don't bother with uprated rear ones.
Bilstein do a replacment set for about £90 for the rears but Renault are about the same price by a few quid and I'd use stock Renault bilstein havn't impressed me I think stock are better.

on the front i have coilovers, the rear is lowered by 40-50mm on gaz springs, there is slight rubbing on the rear arch (as i have 17's) so i dont know whether i should go for a harder shock or not. the fronts i have softened up for everyday drving and doesnt seem that bad, but one of the rear shocks is leaking slightly

No point shocks arn't to be used to stop rubbing thats springs jobs.

I take it you have Gax fronts then? If so I'd chnage the whole lot personally Gaz shocks are dreadful might as well IMO bight the bullet and buy some decient stuff ride would be so much better.
