Default Rear Coilovers not lining up

Hey, just fitting my 2 front monoflex coilovers moved onto the rear all was going well until I realised the base of the coilover was not lining up with the hub. Anybody have any suggestions? Def the right coilovers for the car

Have you got the other side of the car jacked up? if not do it now.
looks like the arb is pulling the hub up and to the side.

sure its the rigth side front rear left right.

Looks like you can twist the bottom to align it by loosening the lock ring and twising?

Not sure tho. Not fitted mine yet.

yea was def all rigth and yes it does twist for height adjustment but it kinda just made it go directly up and down and the angle was never changed. To stiff to try and force in
