Internal diameter is 2.25", just measured 1 of the broken rings.

Rally Design sell them, but then it just depends if the thread size is the same.....

i wouldn't know about the thread Im afraid. I think the rings are about £7 from tein so that place is cheaper if they are the same

Rally design rings have a thread pitch of around 1.25mm

My teins are nothing like that, more like 4mm pitch. The only place you are likely to get them is eBay or tein distributors IMO.

I've made a few coilover kits in the past and nothing seems interchangeable from what I've seen.

wont the rings from the rears fit the fronts?

Absolutely spot on mate. Thread pitch on the Tein is bang on 4mm.

I have a set of rings from budget coilovers and the thread pitch is as you say just over 1mm.

Looks like it'll be a call to Tein UK in the morning.

Do they have a UK distributor or will it be a case of ordering through them, then wait for them coming from over-seas??

Mercutio, you may just have saved me some time. Didn't think of that tbh.

I think they probably will be the same.

Good man.

Tein wont take on 'refurbs'. They say their quality contol is so tight that they would be replacing almost every part so its not worth it. This is what I was told. They will pass you onto the sales dept and so they should...

A performance part is only that as long as it LOOKS like a performance part imo

Got pictures of these dude? Im interested in how they need "refurbing" and why etc. If its only adjuster cups missing and some threads that need seeing too im very interested.
