I have SR Performance springs on my '99 GT convertible with OEM original shocks/struts. Would the SR Performance shocks/struts be a good match for the springs or would you recommend others? Thanks.

There are a lot of good choices for struts and shocks. You really get what you pay for and it really depends how much you want to spend. How about replacing your quad shocks? They are probably worn out too. I have the Bilstien struts and shocks and KYB quad shocks they are good quality and work very well for what I use them for. If it were me I would consider the Bilstien struts and shocks definitely worth the investment.

Also Tokico and Koni are good choices for struts and shocks.

Koni adjustables here. Love them. I've ran lakewood drag shocks, tokico's, kyb's and parts store monroe's. Koni and Tokico are by far my favorites.

Koni non-adjustable shocks and Ford quadra shocks. My 97 GT rides very very well.

If this is just a fun car you aren't racing, any name brand non-adjustable will do fine.
