Default Shock/Strut upgrade.

Hey I'm looking to get a new set of shocks/struts for my 94 GT. The ones in the rear of my car are starting to go and I figure if I'm replacing them I may as well upgrade. I really don't know much about suspension but I've heard a lot about the Tokico D-Spec's for the 05+ Mustangs but I can't find too much about a good set for the SN95's. Most of my driving is on the street and I'm planning to get Steeda Competition springs I'm just not sure what shocks/struts will give me the best handling and a streetable ride. I'm really not that worried about how the bumps feel in the car just that I will be able to drive it on the street. I'll also be getting CC plates along with the struts as I've read that the tires will likely wear faster with the stock ones. Any suggestions?
